Meet the Team

The Cardiovascular Gene Ontology (GO) Annotation Initiative was launched on the 1st November 2007 as a collaboration between University College London and the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI), funded by the British Heart Foundation. We are based in the Centre for Cardiovascular Genetics at the Rayne Institute, UCL, under the leadership of Professor Phillipa Talmud.
