+## Galaxy Genome Annotation
+
+As presented at GCC2023 and EGD2023, a lot of new exciting developments have been made in Galaxy for the annotation of genomes!
+
+This has been done in the frame of the GGA community of practice that you are really welcome to join if you have interest in genome annotation within Galaxy (as a user, developer, trainer, ...).
+
+## New tools!
+
+We've worked hard to integrate into Galaxy many state-of-the-art genome annotation tools! Here's the complete, categorized, list:

+
+## New workflows!
+
+Over the last years we have collected a lot of different workflows for different use-cases. All the GTN tutorials below, for example, are also
+available as workflows. However, they might be hard to find and as a consequence people can be tempted to redo them. To fix that we
+have started to push our workflows to the Intergalactic Workflow Commission, adding workflow tests and pushing them to workflowhub.eu and Dockstore for
+broader dissemination.
+
+You can see the first IWC workflow from the GGA community at [workflowhub](https://workflowhub.eu/workflows/575) or on [GitHub as part of the IWC organisation](https://github.com/iwc-workflows/repeatmasking).
+
+Next up is the [functional annotation](https://github.com/galaxyproject/iwc/pull/228) workflow and our GTN workflows - see below.
+
+## New visualisations!
+
+Galaxy is much more than just a workflow system and one area that we are trying to improve is Visualisation!
+
+Check out our tutorials about this:
+
+![JBrowse](/assets/media/jbrowse.png)
+
+
+
+![Circos](/assets/media/circos.png)
+
+
+
+We also added support for GeneNoteBook: a nice way to present functional annotation data into an easy-to-navigate website:
+
+![GeneNoteBook](/assets/media/gnb.png)
+
+
+## New and updated training material!
+
+We have updated and added new training material for everyone that wants to learn Genome Annotation. If you don't know where to start check out our
+recommended learning path and learn from "Introduction to Genome Annotation" to "Refining Genome Annotations with Apollo" everything that you need to know about Genome Annotation:
+
+
+
+Alternatively, you can jump right into you favorite topic:

+
+## Manual curation and collaborative annotation made easy
+
+[Apollo](https://genomearchitect.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) is a web service for Collaborative Annotation - a “Google Docs of Genome Annotation”
+if you like to think in Google Terms. It allows for real-time, collaborative genome annotation, editing, and review of your favorite genome.
+Genome Annotation requires manual curation and review many hands are needed -
+Biology is a team sport! And Apollo is a wonderful tool to support your team.
+
+![Galaxy Apollo integration](/assets/media/collaborative_editing.png)
+
+To make your life easy we worked closely with the Apollo team and bridged Galaxy with Apollo.
+You can do automatic annotation with Galaxy, using its powerful workflow system, and afterwards send
+the data to Apollo for manual curation and collaborative editing! A typical Galaxy-Apollo use-case might look like that:
+
+ 1. Fetch Data
+ 2. Analyse in Galaxy
+ 3. Send to Apollo
+ 4. Collaboratively Annotate
+ → repeat
+

+
+
+## The Earth BioGenome Project
+
+Building on the [Assembly workflows](https://galaxyproject.org/projects/vgp/) that have been developed as part of the [VGP](https://vertebrategenomesproject.org/)/[BGE](https://biodiversitygenomics.eu/)/[ERGA](https://www.erga-biodiversity.eu/) (→ in short [EBP](https://www.earthbiogenome.org/)) we are planning to deliver high-quality workflows and interactive tools for your genome annotation efforts. Ideally, running assembly and annnotation workflows after each other 😊
+
+## What's next?
+
+Any tool or workflow missing in our catalog? Please tell us and we will do our best to make it available!
+
+We already have these items on our TODO list, stay tuned:
