Abstract

The data resources provided by the European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI) cover major areas of biological and biomedical research, giving free and open access to users ranging from expert to casual level. The EBI Search engine provides a unified metadata search engine across these resources. It provides a full-text search engine across over 6.5 billion data items, accessed through a user-friendly website and an OpenAPI-compliant programmatic interface. Here, we discuss recent developments and improvements in the service.
