"Friends of BioVeL"
“Friends of BioVeL” are projects and organizations that support the objectives of the BioVeL project to deploy robust (Web) services for biodiversity analysis and workflow and to encourage adoption of the workflow approach towards in-silico processing and analysis of biodiversity data. Friends of BioVeL are those individuals, projects and organizations that are not formal partners in the BioVeL project consortium but with whom BioVeL wishes to establish strong two-way mutually supportive relations. To become a friend of BioVeL, please write contact@biovel.eu.
