- EMBnet is a project to develop the infrastructure for access
- to biotechnology information services for the research com-
- munity in Europe. The project includes the formation of a
- network for access to, and exchange and analysis of, data of
- importance to molecular biology and biotechnology.
-
- The network is based on nationally-appointed centres in
- European countries, appropriately staffed and equipped to
- provide a biocomputing service and to develop network-based
- services within their country. Additional nodes are involved
- as hosts of databases or specialised facilities. Current
- nodes and their contact representatives are listed below.
-
- Initial network activities have centred around daily distri-
- bution of nucleotide sequence data from the EMBL Data
- Library using Internet, and sometimes DECnet over X.25.
- National EMBnet nodes therefore maintain remote copies of
- the EMBL Nucleotide Sequence Database for on-line access of
- further re-distribution within their country.
-
- One main goal is to develop bioinformatics and its practice
- in general. Approaches and solutions are discussed among
- the project members via mailing lists, newsgroups and at
- annual workshops.

- Other activities and projects include promotion of computer
- conferencing, remote access to specialised facilities (eg
- sequence similarity searching on massively parallel comput-
- ers), a training programme in bioinformatics, evaluation and
- implementation of Gopher servers, remote sequence database
- updating mechanisms.

- In most cases the services provided by national nodes of
- EMBnet are intended for their national research community.
- In some cases there is a charging system, especially for
- commercial users. Other entries in the Internet Resource
- Guide (eg EMBL Data Library) will give more specific
- details, or contact the resource directly.

- EMBnet received financial support from the EC BRIDGE pro-
- gramme, 1991-94. Major financial support is received by
- most of the national nodes to establish and run their ser-
- vices.
