Lines connect the coordinator with its partners. CORDIS does not always give exact coordinates for projects before 2014. These points are placed at city or country level.

Project objective

The increasing rate at which biological sequences arrive at public databases makes difficult high quality manual annotation. We propose an automatic method for finding keywords to descrive novel sequences; the method is based on the distribution of words in MEDLINE abstracts related to the sequence. The method will be used by database annotators at the European Bioinformatics Institute (Cambridge, UK). We will also provide a World Wide Web (WWW) server for European molecular biologists which gives 'intelligent' links between sequence and related MEDLINE articles.
