The art of curation at a biological database: Principles and application
The variety and quantity of data being produced by biological research has grown dramatically in recent years, resulting in an expansion of our understanding of biological systems. However, this abundance of data has brought new challenges, especially in

A quick guide for student-driven community genome annotation
High quality gene models are necessary to expand the molecular and genetic tools available for a target organism, but these are available for only a handful of model organisms that have undergone extensive curation and experimental validation over the ...

Jointly creating digital abstracts: dealing with synonymy and polysemy
Background Ideally each Life Science article should get a ‘structured digital abstract’. This is a structured summary of the paper’s findings that is both human-verified and machine-readable.

COVID19 Disease Map, a computational knowledge repository of virus–host interaction mechanisms
We need to effectively combine the knowledge from surging literature with complex datasets to propose mechanistic models of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection, improving data interpretation and predicting key targets of intervention.

Biocuration with insufficient resources and fixed timelines [PDF]
Biological curation, or biocuration, is often studied from the perspective of creating and maintaining databases that have the goal of mapping and tracking certain areas of biology. However, much biocuration is, in fact, dedicated to finite and time-limited projects in which insufficient resources demand trade-offs.

Overview of the interactive task in BioCreative V [PDF]
Fully automated text mining (TM) systems promote efficient literature searching, retrieval, and review but are not sufficient to produce ready-to-consume curated documents. These systems are not meant to replace biocurators, but instead to assist them in

Automation of gene function prediction through modeling human curators' decisions in GO phylogenetic annotation project [PDF]
The Gene Ontology Consortium launched the GO-PAINT project (Phylogenetic Annotation and INference Tool) 9 years ago and is currently being used in the GO Reference Genome Annotation Project to support inference of GO function terms (molecular function, cellular component and biological process) by homology. PAINT uses a phylogenetic model to infer gene
