CANARIE Highlights iReceptor
iReceptor was recently featured on the CANARIE Research web page.
CANARIE provided funding for iReceptor through their Research Software Program. Please visit the iReceptor page at CANARIE here.
iReceptor/VDJServer alpha integration up and running!
The CANARIE funded iReceptor extension to link the VDJServer (vdjserver.org) public repository as a remote data repository in iReceptor has been completed! VDJServer is a large, public, immune genetics data repositories, developed by Lindsay Cowell and her team at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School. The iReceptor team has worked closely with the VDJServer team to make this happen - thanks Lindsay and John!
