You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

==Campus==
The Campus is home to some institutes and organisations in [[genomics]] and [[computational biology]]. The Campus is part of the [[Wellcome Trust]], a global charitable foundation that exists to improve health, and houses the [[Wellcome Sanger Institute]], the [[European Bioinformatics Institute]] (EBI), the bioinformatics outstation of the [[European Molecular Biology Laboratory]] (EMBL), and a number of biotech companies whose UK offices are located in the BioData Innovation Centre acting as an incubator for businesses of all sizes. Today, the Campus is a globally significant hub for scientific, business, educational and cultural activities for genomic and biodata sciences.

Over the next 15 years, there are [https://www.wellcomegenomecampus.org/aboutus/futureplans/ significant plans to grow the Campus], extending its facilities to expand its community of scientific talent and business leaders with aligned interests.

=== Campus Facilities ===
As the leading hub of genomic science in Europe, the campus provides a range of facilities and services to support academic research, and businesses that operate in the genomics and biodata market. Its facilities include:

* 350+ seminars, lectures and training courses a year (free and paid for) to help educate staff and keep their skills current. 
* A state-of-the-art conference centre that attracts thousands of visitors every year.
* [https://www.wellcomeconnectingscience.org/who-we-are/ Connecting Science] is a group of experts who help the wider public, schools and colleges to learn about and explore genomic science and its impact on research, health and society.
* A number of cafes and restaurants across the site provide spaces or eating out, informal meetings, relaxing and working. 
* A 15 acre Wetlands Nature Reserve to enjoy and relax in all year around. 
* [https://www.hinxtonhall.org/about/hinxton-hall-history/ Hinxton Hall]- a beautiful historical setting for conference hosts, VIP events and meetings. 
* A modern gymnasium and an all-weather tennis court.
* A library with an extensive range of online journals and databases accessible to all staff on site. 

==Activities==
At the Campus, genome and biodata research takes place. The Campus provides bioinformatics services and delivers training in genomics and biodata to scientists and clinicians. 

==History==

=== Opening of the Campus in 1994 ===
At the time of its official opening by the Princess Royal in 1994, the Wellcome Genome Campus was already home to the [[Wellcome Sanger Institute]] (then called the Sanger Centre), the Medical Research Council’s [[Human Genome Project|Human Genome Mapping Project Resource Centre]], the European Molecular Biology Laboratory’s European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI).

Wellcome funded the establishment of the Sanger Centre in 1993 and chose Hinxton as the home for its new genome research institute. Shortly after, [[European Bioinformatics Institute|EMBL-EBI]] located on the same site, and the two institutes formed a natural fit, consolidating expertise, facilities and knowledge in one place and enabling both to contribute a major role in the Human Genome Project – a global collaboration to sequence the first ‘reference’ human genome.

One third of the human genome was sequenced for the first time at the [https://www.sanger.ac.uk Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute], and the precious data was stored and shared through [[European Bioinformatics Institute|EMBL-EBI]]. This was the largest single contribution of any centre to the Human Genome Project, making the Campus and its collaborations uniquely important in the history of genomics.

Since the announcement of the completion of the draft human genome in 2000, and final completion in 2003, rapid progress in sequencing technology has enabled new and exciting areas of Science to be opened up for exploration. At its opening in 1994, the Campus housed approximately 400 employees. This has grown to over 2,600 people employed at the Wellcome Genome Campus today, making the Campus a densely concentrated and globally significant cluster for biodata and genomics expertise.

=== Before 1993 ===
The first recorded owner of the estate, in 1506, was the [[Michaelhouse, Cambridge|college of Michaelhouse]] in Cambridge but it wasn’t until the early eighteenth century that the first building – a modest hunting and fishing lodge – was erected by Captain Joseph Richardson of [[Horseheath]]. It became a gentleman’s retreat with well-stocked trout ponds and fields full of partridge.

[[Hinxton|The current Hall]] was built by John Bromwell Jones in 1748 and remains today as the central three-storey block on the Campus. Opposite the house were stables, a kitchen garden and an orchard, all of which still exist, albeit in altered form.

By 1800 ownership of the Hall and estate had passed to the Green family, who remained until 1920, when the Hall was sold to the Robinsons. During the Second World War, the Hall was used for billeting American soldiers, stationed at the local airbase at Duxford.

In 1953 the Hall and grounds were sold to Tube Investments Plc for us as research laboratories, which closed in the late 1980s. The site remained under their ownership until it was sold to Genome Research Limited in 1992.

=== Sanger Institute's History ===
The [[Wellcome Trust]] established the Sanger Centre in 1992 to undertake the most ambitious project ever attempted in biology, sequencing the human genome. The new facility developed laboratory infrastructure, robotics, team working and computational approaches on a scale unprecedented in life sciences.


In 2000, the [https://www.sanger.ac.uk/news_item/first-draft-book-humankind-has-been-read/ first draft of the human genome] was announced with the Sanger Centre championing open access to the data and making the largest contribution to the global collaborative endeavour. Genomes began to convert biology into big data science. The subsequently renamed Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute established long term research programmes to explore and apply genome sequences.
