DESCRIPTION:Genome annotation is crucial to defining the function of genomi
 c sequences. Apollo is a popular tool for facilitating real-time collabora
 tive curation and genome annotation editing. The technical obstacles faced
  by Australian researchers wanting to access and maintain this software ha
 ve now been solved. \n\nThe new Apollo Service can host your genome assemb
 ly and supporting evidence files\, taking care of all the system administr
 ation so you and your team can focus on the annotation curation itself. Th
 e Australian BioCommons and partners at [QCIF](https://www.qcif.edu.au/) a
 nd [Pawsey](https://pawsey.org.au/) are now offering the [Apollo Service](
 https://apollo-portal.genome.edu.au/) free to use for [Australian-based](h
 ttps://apollo-portal.genome.edu.au/termsofuse#AusUni) research groups and 
 research consortia.\n\nAs part of this launch\, you’ll hear what’s pos
 sible from some of the early adopters who helped guide the development of 
 the service. These Australian researchers will highlight the benefits that
  Apollo is bringing to their genome annotation and curation workflows.\n\n
 Join us to find out how you can get access to the Apollo Service.\n\n**Who
  the webinar is for**\n\nAnyone with an interest in genome annotation\, ed
 iting and curation.\n\n**Presenters:**\n\nDr Tiffanie Nelson\, Australian 
 BioCommons\n\nFeaturing case studies from:\n\n- Dr Rahul Rane\, CSIRO\n- P
 rof Sandie Degnan and Prof Bernie Degnan\, University of Queensland\n- Dr 
 Ramil ‘Mau’ Mauleon and Julia Voelker\, Southern Cross University\n\n*
 *Date/time:** 29 September 2021  12pm - 1 pm AEST / 11:30am - 12:30pm ACST
  / 10am - 11am AWST\n\n**How to join**\n\nThis webinar is free to join but
