ABC Repositories Setting up of ABC repository for persistence of published
scientific material, reproducibility and sustained accessibility of published
software, databases and datasets in Asia. Usage of contributorIDs, OpenIDs, DOI handles and
other standards Partnering Open Access journals such as
BioMedCentral Partnership with the 8th International Conference on
Bioinformatics and discussion with Nature Methods

Call for ParticipationEndorsement from APAN
Currently over 20 institutes/organizations from six countries have joined this initiative to carry out bioinformatics and computational biology research
on bioinformation. We look forward to fully co-operate with AP* family, APAN, Transpac2, TEIN2,
TEIN3, TEIN4, SEA-EU-NET and FP7 project partners and others to deliver results on our Asian side using Advanced research networking to connect all our nodes with those in Europe and North America.
