+title: New MPUSP Github page released
+authors: [michael]
+tags: [announcements]
+---
+
+The bioinformatics platform of the MPUSP has a **new Github page**!
+
+The page is hosted on our institutional Github account, and provides basic information about our projects, members, and activities.
+The page is regularly updated by fetching the latest stats from Github automatically, and presenting overview figures.
+We will also try to make regular announcements about new tools, publications and other activities.
+
+If you like to get in touch with us, please write to bioinformatics@mpusp.mpg.de.
