Biobanking and Bioinformatics Partners
Our partners included non-biodiversity biobanks, governmental agencies and other organizations that have an interest in biodiversity biobanks and/or biodiversity informatics. These partners are committed to supporting the goals of GGBN by providing technical expertise and/or participating in GGBN activities.
China Biodiversity Conservation and Green Development Foundation
CryoArks
This partnership supports activities associated with the long-term preservation of animal samples and derivatives and the augmentation and management of the GGBN Document Library, to include animal biobanking materials for conservation-focused research efforts.
Entomological Collections Network (ECN)
European, Middle Eastern & African Society for Biopreservation and Biobanking (ESBB)
Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF)
GBIF is an inter-governmental collaboration committed to free and open access to biodiversity data and commits to work closely with GGBN to promote data standardization and interoperability and, where applicable, to encourage and facilitate the participation of GBIF participant nodes as contributors or members within GGBN. GBIF similarly encourages and will support efforts by GGBN partners to share relevant metadata, nomenclature, occurrence and sampling event data through the GBIF network.
The Global Genome Initiative for Gardens (GGI-Gardens)
International Society for Biological and Environmental Repositories (ISBER)
This partnership facilitates joint activities associated with biobanking and biopreservation, including the review of ISBER best practices for biorepositories.
Species360
Species 360 is a zoological collections network with over 10,000,000 records, a subset of which contains frozen tissues and DNAs.This partnership supports the inclusion of all necessary fields to support GGBN publishing by its participating collections.
Specify Collections Consortium
Specify software processes the data associated with specimens in biological research collections, currently used by 450+ biological collections in 38 countries. This partnership supports the inclusion of all necessary fields to support GGBN publishing by its participating collections.
Symbiota
Symbiota is an open source content management system for curating specimen- and observation-based biodiversity data. Symbiota portals represent 37 million records from 766 museums that can be linked to images, tissues, DNA sequence data, as well as other taxonomic and ecological information. This partnership supports the inclusion of all necessary fields to support GGBN publishing by its participating collections.
Research Partners
These research networks (regional and professional associations) recognize the value that GGBN has to researchers and promotes GGBN to their members. Whenever possible, GGBN representatives are active during annual network meetings, connecting directly with the research community.
Earth Biogenome Project
This partnership supports the goals of the EBP project, including cataloging the genome content of earth's biodiversity.
