More uproar about the loss of VEuPathDB:
Critical loss: the effects of VEuPathDB defunding on global health - The Lancet Microbe https://t.co/a40BuIhlfh
On Sunday, September 15th, we will lose access to VEuPathDB, an important database to the Parasitology community. The recent commentary in Science illustrates how this will affect our field. Take a look!
