Global Core Biodata Resources: Concept and Selection Process

The Global Biodata Coalition has developed a selection process to define Global Core Biodata Resources across biological, life science, and biomedical data resources (biodata resources) worldwide. This document explains the Core Biodata Resource concept and the procedure for their selection, thereby providing interested biodata resources with the opportunity to participate in the process.

In the second "211222" version of this article several of the urls in the footnotes have been updated to reflect the development of the GBC web site.
