The BioStudies database holds descriptions of biological studies, links to data from these studies in other databases at EMBL-EBI or outside, as well as data that do not fit in the structured archives at EMBL-EBI. The database can accept a wide range of types of studies described via a simple format. It also enables manuscript authors to submit supplementary information and link to it from the publication.
biostudies

Providers are various services that resolve CURIEs to URLs. The example CURIE
biostudies:S-EPMC6266652
is used to demonstrate the provides available for
biostudies
. Generation of OLS and BioPortal URLs requires additional programmatic
logic beyond string formatting.
