H5N1
Researchers like you have come together to empower this publicly accessible platform, free-of-charge to all researchers in the world who agree to the same terms, to foster a better understanding of the influenza virus. Following the correspondence letter in Nature, we have all pledged to share the data, to analyze the findings jointly, and to publish the results collaboratively, on the basis of open sharing of data respecting the rights and interests of all involved parties.
It is your responsible sharing of this data that will enable building a community of trust and mutual respect which, we all hope, will facilitate broad interdisciplinary research on influenza and the development of interventions for the benefit of the whole human population and the well-being of the planet.
