WormBase is excited to announce the release of a newly updated version of Author First Pass (AFP). Based on valuable feedback from our users, we’ve made several improvements, including:

• Acknowledge author contributions on WormBase Paper and Person pages
• Improved accuracy of entity extraction
• Simplified data entry and updated instructions for data submission
• Created a link to the ‘WormBase AFP Webinar‘ video
• Updated the FAQs

Further enhancements and details are available in the V3 Release Notes.

As always, thank you to the awesome C. elegans community for your participation and input; we look forward to seeing your future submissions!
