[wwPDB] Biocurator Milestone: >10,000 Depositions Processed
Congratulations to wwPDB’s Ms. Yumiko Kengaku on processing 10,000 depositions. Yumiko began her career as a biocurator in 2000, as a member the newly-formed PDBj team at her alma mater Osaka University. She is the 1st wwPDB biocurator to process more than 10,000 structures. Many Asian structural biologists know and trust Yumiko. For more than two decades, she has worked closely with depositors to expertly guiding them through the structure deposition process, ensuring timely release of high-quality data. A gift celebrating her long service to PDBj, the wwPDB, and the global scientific community was presented to Yumiko in April 2021. We look forward to celebrating the accomplishments of the next biocurator to reach the 10,000 deposition milestone.
