Six FAANG Task Forces to tackle the G2P challenges in farmed animals have started! Go to https://t.co/HTwqPN2W4E to join the activities of FAANGPrediction, metaFAIR, FarmGTEx, FAANGSingleCell,FAANGCompGen and HTP-DS Task Forces! @faangomics @FAANGEurope @EuroFaang@EAAPofficial
Within #BovReg project, a portable #NextFlow DSL2 pipeline was developed by #FBN for a reproducible large-scale eQTL study with data contribution from 6partners. The study identified several 1000s significant cis-eQTL across the bovine genome in 8different tissues @wcgalp2022
Gabriel Moreira @ULiegeRecherche made the presentation "Multi-dimensional functional annotation of #bovine genome🧬🐮 for the BovReg project" today at the @wcgalp2022
The Democs game contributes to public #engagement needed in the societal & #ethical debate that invites the general #public to particpate.
@Meijboom75 presented Broadening the debate on breeding innovations. On public engagement and the role of Democs Game at #WCGALP
5 partners of #BovReg performed sequence-based GWAS for 28 beef production traits on 50K animals from 15 different #cattle . Results were combined in meta-analyses to identify a higher number of #genomic regions in which variants were more frequently located in genes.🧬🐮
Anne Pierre Sanchez from @INRAE_France made the following presentation today at @wcgalp2022
"Sequence-based GWAS meta-analyses for beef production trait"🥩
. @birgitgredler from @WUR made the following presentation at #WCGALP2022: "Accuracy of #genomic prediction of dry matter intake in Dutch #Holsteins using sequence variants from meta-analyses"🐮🧬 during session: Challenges – Improving genomic prediction (1)

The results of the FAANG 2022 survey are now available! Many thanks to the 88 respondents: these are useful data for organising new thematic Task Forces to tackle G2P challenges. Have a look: https://t.co/pdbxsjaQCC @faangomics @FAANGEurope @EuroFaang@EAAPofficial
The @EuroFaang project @BovReg will host a webinar on 'Novel genotyping solutions to consider trait-associated variants in animal improvement programs'. March 15 2-5pm CET. Full program and free registration https://t.co/KxcX45z36z Hosted as part of @EAAPofficial monthly webinars
Looking forward to presenting perspectives from the @faangomics data portal at the @AG2PI workshop on best practices for use and reuse of agricultural genomics data. This work at @emblebi is funded by the @EuroFaang projects: @AQUA_FAANG@BovReg and @GeneSwitch.
Save the date. @EuroFaang virtual training course on best practice for submitting experiment and analysis data to FAANG. 7th April 13-17 GMT, 14-18 CET, 07-11 CST. Provided by @emblebi and @CRGenomica. Funded by @GeneSwitch and supported by @BovReg Open to all @faangomics members
Registration is now open for the free FAANG virtual workshop to be held on 16th February. Come and hear all of the latest developments from the @faangomics and @EuroFaang projects. https://t.co/v0K5UHpzWC
FAANG is continuing to evolve to support G2P research across the world, we seek your input to organise new thematic Task Forces and Working Groups to tackle key challenges. Please complete this survey (~5 minutes to complete):

EuroFAANG is a coordinated effort to unravel the connection between the genetic make-up of an animal and the observable physical and physiological traits. EuroFAANG will address key challenges in farmed animal production in collaboration with the global @faangomics initiative.
Given much consideration of current situation of the PAG meeting. FAANG
Workshop organizers have decided to reschedule the FAANG Workshop to the
second half of February. Specific details of the workshop will be shared
with the community in the next week.
Latest update on the @faangomics Data Coordination Centre that is funded by the EuroFAANG projects @AQUA_FAANG@BovReg and @GeneSwitch to deliver global support to improve availability of high-quality functional annotation of farmed and companion animal genomes
Thrilled that our latest @faangomics paper on the FAANG Data Portal (https://t.co/Xk09zF46Zx) is out. Detailing our efforts to support genome to phenome animal research with rich, validated, open and 'FAIR' data https://t.co/A8HRkQoa8o
