FAIRY
The FAIRY project focuses on enhancing YEASTRACT+, a widely used open-access FAIRsharing Knowledge-base and repository developed by ELIXIR, that supports research on yeast transcriptional regulation. Yeasts are vital organisms in both the bioeconomy, e.g. through the industrial production of food, energy and commodities, and in health research, due to their role as pathogens and model organisms for studying genetics and disease. FAIRY aims to significantly advance scientific understanding of yeast regulatory networks and improve the platform by integrating advanced data analysis tools, ensuring compliance with FAIR principles. By relying on the Galaxy Europe platform for raw data curation, the project will link with the EOSC, increasing the database’s scientific utility and promoting data sharing across disciplines.
