External Services at the EBI

The External Services (ES) group is involved in a wide range of projects. These include the maintenance and development of the EMBL-EBI web site, improving accessibility to EMBL-EBI services (including programmatic access to more than 150 individual tools using SOAP-based Web Services), user support through the EBI helpdesk, and training and education through the 2Can Bioinformatics portal.

Our work involves all the EMBL-EBI’s major databases, as well as analytical tools produced by groups at the EMBL-EBI and by collaborators. External Services acts as a hub for the EMBL-EBI’s activities by making the work of our service and research staff available to external users, and by providing a cohesive way in to the EMBL-EBI’s resources. The team strives to maintain high uniform standards for web publishing, resource utilisation and user support.

The ES group is headed by Rodrigo Lopez.

The ES website is split into 2 private sections as follows:
