Jekyll2026-09-11T14:04:01+00:00https://climb.ac.uk/feed.xmlCLIMBCLIMB is a cloud computing infrastructure for microbial bioinformatics — notebook servers, shared storage and reproducible workflows for genomics, metagenomics and pathogen surveillance researchers across the UK.Welcome to the new CLIMB website2026-09-01T00:00:00+00:002026-09-01T00:00:00+00:00https://climb.ac.uk/blog/2026/09/01/welcome-to-the-new-climb-websiteWe’ve rebuilt climb.ac.uk from the ground up: a minimal, fast site focused on what researchers actually need — what CLIMB offers, what it costs, and how to get started.

Technical documentation hasn’t moved — everything for working on CLIMB day to day (JupyterLab, storage, Nextflow, and more) still lives at docs.climb.ac.uk, kept up to date by the team. This site is the front door: pricing, packages, onboarding, our case studies, and — new — this news page, for announcements, funding updates and stories from the CLIMB community.

If there’s something you’d like to see here, get in touch.

  • CLIMB-COVID — supporting the COG-UK consortium’s analysis of over two millions SARS-CoV-2 genomes.
  • mSCAPE — UKHSA’s metagenomics surveillance and analysis programme.
  • PATH-SAFE — farm-to-fork surveillance of foodborne pathogens and AMR.
  • training training the next generation of bioinformaticians.

Read the full set on the case studies page.
