KBase Educators
For educators using KBase in their curriculum — Join to access community-developed resources for teaching with KBase, supportive documentation, and best practices.
Resources — for educators, by educators
The KBase Educators Community stemmed from instructors looking to create and share teaching resources for using the KBase platform with their students. Together, the community developed modular workflows to provide their students with research-based experiences around bioinformatics and systems biology using KBase that connect to biological concepts.
