##Funding GVL acknowledges funding from the NeCTAR project. NeCTAR is an Australian Government project conducted as part of the Super Science initiative and financed by the Education Investment Fund.
##Development Partners GVL development has been led by Melbourne Bioinformatics at the University of Melbourne in collaboration with the Research Computing Centre at the University of Queensland.
- The University of QLD Research Computing Centre is developing GVL infrastructure on the QLD Research Cloud with QCIF, and developing researcher resources with QFAB:
- Melbourne Bioinformatics is developing GVL infrastructure on the Melbourne Research Cloud with University of Melbource ITS, and developing researcher resources with Peter Mac and Baker IDI:
- Melbourne Bioinformatics
- Victorian eResearch Strategic Initiative (VeRSI)
- The University of Melbourne (UoM)
- Baker IDI Heart and Diabetes Institute (Baker IDI)
- Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre (PeterMac)
- Garvan Institute of Medical Research is developing and operating Galaxy in house, and is contributing expertise and researcher resources:
- CSIRO is developing and operating Galaxy in house, so is contributing know how and expertise, and developing researcher resources:
- CSIRO and BioPlatforms Australia are integrating framework datasets into the GVL:
- CSIRO
- Bioplatforms Australia (BPA)
- Several other Universities are planning to develop the GVL as further Research Cloud nodes come on line:
- The project is receiving further support and encouragement from:
