Abstract
Abstract
Now in its 25th year of operation, the UCSC Genome Browser (https://genome.ucsc.edu) provides a central location for researchers around the world to display and compare annotations on assembled genomes. Highlighted updates include a positional heatmap display, used to show data on functional consequences of mutation from MaveDB; QuickLift, a tool to copy annotation data seen on one assembly for display on another related assembly; and HubSpace, an initiative to simplify the process of creating and using track hubs by providing each user account with dedicated storage on UCSC's infrastructure.
