Project logo by Marek Ostaszewski. CC-BY. Already started a few weeks ago, but the COVID-19 Disease Maps project now has a sketch published, outlining the ambitions: COVID-19 Disease Map, building a computational repository of SARS-CoV-2 virus-host interaction mechanisms (doi:10.1038/s41597-020-0477-8).

I’ve been focusing on the experimental knowledge we have about the components of the SARS-CoV-2 virion and how they interact with the human cell. I’m at least two weeks behind on reading literature, but hope to catch up a bit this week. The following diagram shows one of the pathways on the WikiPathways COVID-19 Portal:

This has led to collaborations with Andra Waagmeester, Jasper Koehorst and others, resulting in this preprint that needs some tweaking before submission, to an awesome collaboration with Birgit Meldal around the Complex Portal (preprint pending), and a Japanese translation of a book around a number search queries against Wikidata (CC-BY/CC0). The latter two were started at the recent online BioHackathon.

Oh, boy, do I love Open Science.
