We're partnering with the DSI Scientific Network to strengthen capacity around Digital Sequence Information (DSI). We kicked off with a great seminar featuring a Microbiota Vault intro by Dominik Steiger and a DSI update by Pablo Orozco. www.microbiotavault.org/partnership-...

Our beautiful Microbiota Vault framework figure, designed together with Joel Colombo and used in our Nature Communications perspective paper (doi.org/10.1038/s414...), made it Infographic of the week in the Nature Briefing Microbiology newsletter (www.nature.com/briefing/mic...)!
The Microbiota Vault educates scientists and promotes the creation of Local Collections for preservation and research. These local collections can request that the Microbiota Vault preserve a safe backup of their specimens, maintaining all rights over their deposits; they have the option to request sequencing for open access under the license of their choice, and the MV will publish on its webpage a database of the deposited specimens, including metadata, links to sequences, and contact information about depositors. Those in the global community interested in doing research can then contact the depositor from the Local Working Collection. For the use of data derived from the Microbiota Vault, explicit acknowledgments to the specific Local Working Collection and to the Microbiota Vault will be required.

Today is the International Day for Biological Diversity. There is visible and invisible biodiversity. Both are at risk. The Microbiota Vault acts as a global guardian of microbial diversity. www.microbiotavault.org
