The aim of this announcement was to establish an infrastructure in Germany that will provide solutions to the ‘Big Data Problem’ in life science by means of bioinformatics services and training. A second announcement of funding guidelines for de.NBI partner projects was published in November 2015. The de.NBI program was launched by the BMBF in March 2015, and the partner projects started their work in November 2016.<ref name="autogenerated2" /> In addition, the [[ELIXIR]] Node in Germany (ELIXIR-DE) is run by de.NBI partners since August 2016.<ref>[https://www.elixir-europe.org/news/elixir-board-meeting-2016-spring-session ELIXIR Board Meeting Spring 2016]</ref><ref>[https://www.elixir-europe.org/news/germany-joins-elixir Germany joins ELIXIR]</ref><ref>[https://www.elixir-europe.org/about-us/who-we-are/nodes/germany.
