It fixes some bugs, updates some underlying databases and brings new features (e.g. you can now BYODB – bring your own database).
GUNC v1.1.0 is also live on #bioconda .
Excited to share the upcoming EMBO | EMBL Symposium “Metabolic interactions shape ecosystems” 🧬🌍
📍 Heidelberg & online
📅 21–24 July 2026
Abstract deadline: 14 April!
