SysNDD: more than just a gene list! A call for NDD expert curators

The new SysNDD database will replace its predecessor SysID as a regularly updated, manually expert curated database on NDD associated genes and related diseases and phenotypes. For a one-time re-curation of all entries we are looking for expert curators who are interested in contributing their expertise to this resource, to specifically take care of their favorite genes and to be involved in possible future studies and publications on SysNDD.
For further details, please visit our website at this page.
