JervenLove how https://consensus.rubalkhali.science/ links ecological data to the molecular world of #UniProt with some smarts and the power of federated #SPARQL
@abrokenjester unfortunately is a changing measure. I still regret telling the @[email protected] that #UniProt will stay smaller tan 27 billion triples :( which is 1/10th of the current size.
@harmonia_amanda the vast majority of #SPARQL experts are autodidact! Heck I learn more from the #uniprot sparql endpoint users with their user cases than from the language spec. The joy of seeing smart scientist play with the data is amazing
Daniel MietchenUser benefits of #uniprot are estimated to be on the order of 20 times higher than operational costs https://www.sib.swiss/news/uniprot-user-benefits-up-to-39-times-higher-than-operational-costs
#UniProt The largest open+free #knowledgegraph in the life sciences. I will be talking about the why and the use cases at #semantics2025 5th of September 2025. Looking forward to seeing you all there!

Peter CockInteresting in his #ISMBECCB2025 keynote that Amos Bairoch described as the worst decision of his career: caving to USA pressure to switch from funding model of free to academics & non-profits to use #SwissProt / #UniProt (with no login barrier), but paid access to Industry - to a free-to-all model funded by an NIH grant.
[I suspect industry lobbying at NIH there. One issue with grants is they are typically fixed term. Also, this would have been a very strong precedent for other DBs to follow - would have been more sustainable ecosystem?]
Darren#uniprot just hides the controls.. so you can't even try to full screen. but you can fortunately link out the #ebi #alphafold site where (ctd..)

Int Soc BiocurationIn 2023, ISB members voted to award Sandra Orchard the Exceptional Contribution to Biocuration award (https://www.biocuration.org/pascale-gaudet-and-sandra-orchard-recipients-of-the-2023-exceptional-contribution-to-biocuration-award).
Today at #biocuration2025 in Kansas City, she's presenting her award talk "How will the role of the Biocurator change in this world of Artificial Intelligence and Machine-Learning?" with a focus on current work at UniProt
