GigaScience aims to revolutionize data dissemination, organization, understanding, and use. An online open-access open-data journal, we publish 'big-data' studies from the entire spectrum of life and biomedical sciences. To achieve our goals, the journal has a novel publication format: one that links standard manuscript publication with an extensive database that hosts all associated data and provides data analysis tools and cloud-computing resources.
Our scope covers not just 'omic' type data and the fields of high-throughput biology currently serviced by large public repositories, but also the growing range of more difficult-to-access data, such as imaging, neuroscience, ecology, cohort data, systems biology and other new types of large-scale sharable data.


  • Here Be Dragon Genomes

    Here is the genome of the Australian dragon lizard Pogona vitticeps, an interesting model for studying sex determination due to its ability to change from genotypic to temperature-dependent sex determination

  • Microbiome machine learning

    Predicting dysbiosis from microbiome community interaction data provides a potentially powerful tool for understanding the links between the human microbiome and human health

  • Challenging Function Annotation challenges

    Analyzing the performance of function prediction methods for the latest Critical Assessment of Function Annotation challenge shows cross-validation is not adequate at estimating performance and ranking methods

    A better sense for metagenomic complexity

    Metagenomics studies produce growing volumes of high-resolution sequence datasets, and novel tools are needed to efficiently process these for accurate analysis and interpretation. Tentacle is a novel framework for such gene quantification

  • BLAST+ off into the Galaxy

    The sequence comparison tool suite BLAST+ has been wrapped for easier use with the Galaxy workflow system, and is also available in MyExperiment and as a Docker Image
