+ <h2>History, Funding, and Governance</h2>
+ <p>
+ The prototype for TreeBASE was first launched in 1994 (Sanderson et al. 1994,
+ Piel et al., 2002) with funding from NSF SGER (NSF DEB 9318325: "A prototype
+ database of phylogenetic studies"). The database underwent a complete
+ redevelopment and redesign with funding from the <a href="http://www.phylo.org">
+ Cyberinfrastructure for Phylogenetic Research project</a> (NSF EF 0331654:
+ "Building the Tree of Life -- A National Resource for Phyloinformatics and
+ Computational Phylogenetics").
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ TreeBASE was released in March 2010 as one of the main products of The
+ Phyloinformatics Research Foundation, Inc., a Connecticut non-profit
+ corporation. The Foundation provides direction, governance, and continuity for
+ software, data sharing, and communication standards to promote phyloinformatic
+ research for the scientific community.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ The current version of the database is 2.0 (released March 2010), and is hosted
+ by the National Evolutionary Synthesis Center (<a href="http://www.nescent.org">
+ NESCent</a>). In previous years the database has been hosted by the
+ <a href="http://www.peabody.yale.edu/">Yale Peabody Museum</a>, the
+ <a href="http://www.sdsc.edu">San Diego Supercomputer Center</a>, the
+ <a href="http://www.buffalo.edu">University at Buffalo</a>,
+ <a href="http://www.harvard.edu">Harvard University</a>,
+ <a href="http://www.leiden.edu">Leiden University</a>, and the
+ <a href="http://www.ucdavid.edu">University of California, Davis</a>.
