Finally I can properly explore the mcp-ui pattern. Pretty interesting how the development of new components (especially complex ones) will change dramatically in how data is loaded into them. Exiting times🔥 building a demo using @opentargets.org components. Ref: mcpui.dev

We have now deprecated Open Targets Genetics — it has been superseded by the Open Targets Platform The team said goodbye to Open Targets Genetics, through the medium of memes Enjoy!
Meme: Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond comparing two cars. In the first image, Jeremy points to one labelled "Open Targets Genetics" saying, This is brilliant. In the second image, he points to another labelled "Merged Open Targets Platform" saying, "But I like this".

👀 Not long now until the spring (25.03) Platform release… This will introduce variant, study, and credible set data, effectively merging Open Targets Genetics with the Open Targets Platform 🖥️🧬 We're working on documenting the changes — do you have any questions or concerns that we can answer?
Graphic reads: Coming soon, variant, study, and credible set data. 25.03 release, with the Open Targets Platform logo. The illustration shows cartoon hands typing on a laptop, where the screen shows a variant page in the Open Targets Platform.
