General description

The Eukaryotic Pathogen, Vector and Host Informatics Resource (VEuPathDB) is one of two Bioinformatics Resource Centers (BRCs) funded by the US NIAID (National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases) and the UK's Wellcome Trust.

1. PATRIC & VIPR focus on bacterial and viral pathogens.
2. VEuPathDB focuses on eukaryotic pathogens and invertebrate vectors of infectious diseases, containing data from prior BRCs devoted to fungi (FungiDB), parasitic species (EuPathDB), and vector species (VectorBase).

VEuPathDB offers access to diverse genomic and other large-scale datasets related to eukaryotic pathogens and invertebrate disease vectors. Organisms supported by this resource include (but are not limited to) the NIAID list of emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases.
