✨We now have some new content on Blue Sky!
↘️Check it out here: bsky.app/profile/jalview.bsk…
jalview and @bartongrp services are not running just now - more updates as we have them !
Hi folks. We have a technical issue currently being looked at by @UoD_DTS that is affecting all @dundeeuni @UoDLifeSciences @gjbarton services. More news as we have it...
We are now headed for bluer skies. Follow us on Blue Sky at @jalview.bsky.social for all the latest news💙
2024 was a fun year for us at Jalview! We've been busy, so here's a little 'scrapbook' for you to see all the exciting things we got up to last year. 📆
A big thank you to all our users, collaborators and funders - we couldn't have done it without you. @UoDLifeSciences @BBSRC @wellcometrust @bartongrp @gjbarton @foreveremain @KhadijasVoice @PDBeurope @emblebi @DaffDNA @SLDuce @LifeSpaceDundee @DJCAD
Last week saw art inspired by Jalview debut at the 2024 undergraduate Art, Science and Visual Thinking exhibition in @UoDLifeSciences @LifeSpaceDundee art gallery.
ALT A painting of a mandala with a beige background and concentric circles filled with paper cutouts of various species, proteins and life forms inspired by Jalview's alignment capabilities.
This A1 sized piece by @DJCAD student, Poppy Gilfillan, is a mandala-collage that explores the interconnectedness of all life forms, including homologous proteins that Jalview provides alignment capabilities for.
ALT A caption accompanying an art piece to explain the inspiration behind it.
And here's a wee photo of the artist, Poppy (right) and @KhadijasVoice (left) from our team who tutored her for this piece, hanging out at the exhibition.

A new Jalview training video has landed – the first from the newest member of Jalview's core team: Khadija. This video covers working in Jalview with 3D structures from PDB/AlphaFold/SwissModel and more in their evolutionary context through alignment. youtube.com/watch?v=ZBDZdeTF…
ALT JMol and Jalview alignment window with alignment of EPAS1 protein sequences from the human, mouse and rat species coloured using gecos Flower colour scheme.
This Jalview feature uses 3D Beacons at EMBL-EBI @emblebi to access structural data. Core development is in the Barton Group @bartongrp headed by Professor Geoff Barton @gjbarton in @UoDLifeSciences with funding from Wellcome Trust @wellcometrust and BBSRC @BBSRC.
Many thanks also to Dr. Jim Procter @foreveremain, Dr. Stuart MacGowan @stuartmac44, Javier Utges-Sanchez @JavierUtges and other members of the Barton Group towards the development of this video.
Our friends at @PDBeurope noticed an issue that prevents Jalview automatically discovering 3D structures for a sequence using its name. This will be fixed in the next data release: eta 27th Nov 2024. Until then you can still use the 3D beacons search button to discover structures

Thank you to all of the @jalview users who find the software helpful in their research and cite it in their papers. Citations are important for us to help make the case for continued funding for the core development team @bartongrp @UoDLifeSciences
⚡️Our 2009 Jalview paper now has more than 10,000 citations!
