As one of four National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID/NIH) funded Bioinformatics Resource Centers (2-6) EuPathDB provides data, tools and services to scientific communities researching pathogens in the NIAID list of emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases which includes NIAID category A-C priority pathogens and many fungi. Additional EuPathDB support for the kinetoplastid and fungal research communities is funded by The Wellcome Trust in collaboration with GeneDB (7), including support for focused curated annotation. This manuscript describes expanded content, features and tools added since 2013 that increase the data mining and discovery power of EuPathDB.
