KOBIC stands for the Korean Bioinformation Center. It is comparable to the US NCBI and EBI in Europe.
KOBIC was originally established as NGIC (National Genome Information Center) in 2001 in Korea. In 2006, its function has been extended to include biodiversity and bioresource information management and a new name KOBIC was born.
