As a DOE Office of Science User Facility, we provide access to data and omics technologies at zero cost to researchers.
JGI At-A-Glance
Global Users
Each year, the JGI serves over 2,000 users — researchers with accepted project proposals, at all career stages.
A Diversity of Capabilities
With an accepted proposal, JGI Users gain access to deep expertise and a broad toolset.
Data Portals
We provide data that supports interdisciplinary work on a broad variety of organisms. Each dot in these networks shows a publication that mentions a given data portal, with work that cross-references multiple portals in between respective hubs.
Foundational Work
JGI’s work reverberates over time to enable many discoveries. The Soybean genome shown is one example — since our original reference genome, the entire project has directly impacted over 5,000 unique studies. These works have gone on to influence over 100,000 further studies.
JGI releases latest 5-year strategic plan
“Innovating Genomics to Serve the Changing Planet” lays out how users and the global research community will bridge fundamental knowledge gaps to advance biotechnology and biomanufacturing. This plan aligns our DOE Office of Science user facility with broader national efforts to promote and stimulate a bioeconomy.
P. psychrophila genes drive resilience when salinity fluctuates
Recent JGI-enabled research highlights the adaptive mechanisms of algae in changing Arctic waters.
Gotta catch 'em gall
Our Genome Insider podcast follows two researchers studying wasps able to program oak trees to raise their young in structures called galls.
