Dear everyone,

Thank you all so much for your incredible work on the manuscript and for promptly providing your signatures. It has been a true pleasure working with all of you on this project.

I have now compiled all of the signatures into a single document.

Thank you again for all your support, wishes, and contributions!

Best regards,

Engy Nasr

Dear all,

I hope you are doing well.

I am pleased to share that our manuscript, "Microbiology Galaxy Lab: The first community-driven gateway for reproducible and FAIR analysis of microbiological data," has been provisionally accepted for publication in Communications Biology. We are currently addressing the final comments from the reviewers.

In parallel, as part of the formal process for Engy Nasr’s PhD thesis submission, she needs to provide a summary of her publications, including authors’ names, individual contributions, and signatures. Attached, you will find the contribution table for the MGL publication, with names and contributions pre-filled as they appear in the paper.

Could you please:

• Sign the PDF next to your name,
• Ensure your signature stays within the dedicated cell (avoid the borders for easier compilation),
• Return the signed version to me and Engy (engynasr94@gmail.com) at your earliest convenience.

Thank you for your support. It is greatly appreciated!

Best,

Bérénice
