African DSI DataBank sets out federated platform for genomic and biodiversity data
A Comment in Nature Reviews Genetics describes the African DSI DataBank as a federated platform. African institutions use it to steward, govern and share digital sequence information on biodiversity and agriculture. They can host, manage and contribute genomic and other biomolecular data, and they keep local control and full custody.
African organizations can host, study, govern and share their own digital sequence data while retaining custody.
