The EBI holds an unrivalled collection of freely available data resources for life scientists. You can do an integrated search of the EBI's main data resources using the EBI's search engine, EB-eye, at www.ebi.ac.uk or from any page of the EBI website.

The EBI's user-training courses are available to all EMBL alumni. It coordinates both a hands-on programme at its Hinxton site and a bioinformatics roadshow in collaboration with its partners from the FELICS Integrated Infrastructures Initiative. Both programmes are designed to help experimental biologists make the most of Europe's main biological data resources.

The EBI also hosts an EU-funded Marie Curie training fellowship scheme with which early-stage researchers can visit the EBI for 3-6 months to pursue a bioinformatics project under the supervision of an EBI group or team leader.
