The archives and records management segment of the SAB is represented by Jenny Shaw, the Head of Collections at the Wellcome Trust. Jenny Shaw has been the main advisor to EMBL in establishing its archive and records management services since 2013.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>EMBL Alumni Archive Working Group<\/strong>: This working group is composed of the following EMBL alumni who helped establish the EMBL Archive: <a href=\"https:\/\/de.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Giulio_Superti-Furga\">Giulio Superti-Furga<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cicbiogune.es\/people\/mdmvivanco\">Maria dM Vivanco<\/a>, Halldor Stefansson, <a href=\"https:\/\/ciid-heidelberg.de\/research-groups\/frischknecht-lab\/\">Freddy Frischknecht<\/a>, Mary Holmes and Mark Green.
