Paper Published on CryoEM Archiving and Validation Recommendations

A workshop was held at EMBL-EBI (Hinxton, UK) in January 2020 to discuss data requirements for deposition and validation of cryoEM structures, with a focus on single-particle analysis and setting community recommendations. The outcomes of this meeting have now been published in this manuscript which highlights the recent achievements made by the wwPDB in the space of 3DEM validation and the community recommendations going forward. Some of these recommendations have already been implemented, such as a three-tiered strategy powered by the Validation Analysis (VA) pipeline for the dissemination of validation information and ensuring the that VA can be run by external applications.
