ELIXIR-UK Coordination Office

Lead Research Organisation: Earlham Institute
Department Name: Research Faculty

Abstract

ELIXIR-UK is the UK node of ELIXIR, an intergovernmental organisation that brings together life science resources from across Europe. ELIXIR-UK coordinates a wide range of activities across data integration, provision of tools and data, and training in bioinformatics involving 21 UK Universities and Research Institutes. The ELIXIR-UK Coordination Office, based at the Earlham Institute in Norwich, interacts with the ELIXIR Hub on behalf of its members, provides national coordination for the activities, and is pivotal in their delivery, cross-connectivity and impact.
We are requesting a two year funding of existing and new activity to ensure the UKs continued involvement in ELIXIR and to ensure that the efforts of ELIXIR are returned to UK scientists.

Technical Summary

ELIXIR-UK is the UK node of ELIXIR, an intergovernmental organisation that brings together life science resources from across Europe. ELIXIR-UK coordinates a wide range of activities across data integration, provision of tools and data, and training in bioinformatics involving 21 UK Universities and Research Institutes.
The ELIXIR-UK Coordination Office, based at the Earlham Institute in Norwich, interacts with the ELIXIR Hub on behalf of its members, provides national coordination for the activities, and is pivotal in their delivery, cross-connectivity and impact.
IN THIS FUNDED PERIOD WE WILL:

- continue to supervise the administrative and outreach functions necessary for the establishment, growth and maintenance of the Node going forward. The Coordination Office will also be the first point of contact for the Funders, ELIXIR Hub and the Institutions involved in ELIXIR-UK on administrative matters.

- ensure that requirements of the Collaboration Agreement with the ELIXIR hub are satisfied and that ELIXIR-UK participants fulfil their responsibilities under the Node Consortium Agreement.

- attend meetings and conferences and make presentations on behalf of the Node, and liaise with the ELIXIR Hub and other Nodes.

- organise events to engage with all members of the ELIXIR-UK community. The Node office will also support and enable people within the ELIXIR-UK community to attend conferences and meetings as representatives of ELIXIR-UK.

- We will develop our policies on ethics, equality, diversity and inclusion and scientific misconduct as well as other areas such as environmental impact in order that we meet the high standard of research culture expected by UKRI.

- continue with the expansion of the ELIXIR-UK Consortium

- continue to publicise the UK Node and widen the involvement in the node

- establish new UK Focus Groups including launch and networking

- Partner in new ELIXIR funded projects

Description ELIXIR-UK has expanded to 28 National Members adding Open Life Science, Health Data Research UK, Pirbright Institute, University of Swansea and Queen Mary University London. Successfully strengthened the UK presence within ELIXIR with three ELIXIR-UK services being recognised as ELIXIR Recommended Interoperability Resources: FAIR Cookbook, Jalview and RDMkit, four became ELIXIR Core Data Resources: HGNC, LIPID MAPS®, PomBase and VEuPathDB and three services endorsed as Global Core Biodata Resources: CATH, IPHAR/BPS and LipidMaps. The UK Node also co-leads ELIXIR Interoperability Platform and the ELIXIR 3D-Bioinfo, Galaxy, hCNV, Microbial Biotechnology and Research Data Management Communities, as well as leadership of ELIXIR flagship resources: RDMkit, FAIRCookbook, WorkflowHub, TeSS, FAIRsharing, RO-Crate, Bioschemas. In 2023 we also established a UK Human Data Community and a UK BioData Club. Other activities include joint leadership of Health Data Research UK's 5 year programme on federated analytics using ELIXIR technologies in workflow and RO-Crates. A successful first year of the FAIRsharing Community Champions Programme, supported by EOSC Future and the RDA and wider involvement with European with active involvement in 16 ELIXIR-related Horizon Europe projects, including EVERSE and ENTRUST. ELIXIR have been instrumental in establishing the DASH data management fellowships that have created a community of researchers around the Data management. The Dash fellows are disseminating best practice in universities and institutes across the UK We have engaged industry in our activities, such as Syngenta and IBM research who have participated in our events such as ELIXIR all hands and the CBCB

Collaborator Contribution Cardiff University will primarily address the mission of ELIXIR "to build a sustainable European infrastructure for biological information" through the contribution of the LIPID MAPS Gateway to ELIXIR-UK. This collection of databases and resources serve the global lipid research community, with over 1M users per year worldwide. LIPID MAPS was created in the USA in 2003 via an NIH Glue grant that ran till 2013. In July 2016, The Wellcome Trust funded a Biomedical Resources Grant (£1.3M, O'Donnell PI) to further maintain and develop the resource, for 5 yrs, in collaboration with colleagues at Babraham Institute and University of California, San Diego (UCSD). In early 2018, LIPID MAPS moved to the UK, preserving its internationally recognised classification system and curated public open access lipid structure database, the largest in the world. The LIPID MAPS Gateway provides access to lipid nomenclature, databases, tools, protocols, standards, tutorials, meetings, publications, and other resources. Importantly, it has generated the internationally-used LIPID MAPS nomenclature and classification system (the global standard embedded in most journals worldwide).

Collaborator Contribution The main motivation for the UEA to apply to become an Elixir UK node member, is the application in response to the 2021 Request for Proposals for Community-led Implementation Studies: "Building on PDBe-KB to chart and characterise the conformational landscape of native proteins" led by Professor Shoshana Wodak at the Free University of Brussels. This pan-European project concerns the creation of infrastructure to chart the experimentally sampled conformational diversity of native proteins in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) augmented with results of state-of-the-art computational tools. It is divided into five work packages (WP's) and WP2 is to be led by Dr Steven Hayward of the Computational Biology Laboratory at the School of Computing Sciences, UEA, and Professor Wodak. WP2, "Characterizing protein regions with different flexibility properties and links to sequence and functional annotations" concerns characterizing conformational ensembles and identifying key regions such as hinge and linker. Hayward will also be involved in WP5, "Implementation study management, dissemination and training."

Results and Impact This was the third iteration of the UK Conference of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (UK-CBCB), organised in conjunction with ELIXIR-UK. The conference was designed to bring together biologists, bioinformaticians, computer scientists, software engineers and data scientists across the life sciences to discuss and present on how to manage biological data and use computational methods to power life science research. The 3-day programme combined a keynote lecture with presentations of use cases from researchers working at the cutting edge, plus breakout discussion groups at the end of each session. The breakout groups were intended for participants to exchange expertise and challenges with one another, in order to develop multidisciplinary solutions to complex problems together. Discussions and themes as a result of these breakout groups were then summarised by the facilitator at the end of each session. To maximise engagement across multiple disciplines we opted for a streamlined programme (no parallel sessions), and short introductory talks to support each session to encourage focus on the theme in question. Research facilitators also headed up each session to reinforce key themes, and encourage or stimulate conversation. The sessions covered: Metagenomics and Microbial Bioinformatics; Bioimaging and Artificial Intelligence; Sex and Gender Bias in Computational Disciplines; Federated Analytics/Learning; Structural Bioinformatics; Open Science and Spatial Transcriptomics. Over 130 delegates registered to attend the conference, the majority from the United Kingdom (~86%) however registrants were also based in the US and Europe, Asia, the Middle East and South Africa. Approximately half of these virtual attendees were Postdoctoral Researchers (52%) while other significant groups comprised PhD Students (19%) and Professor/PIs (11%).
