University of Geneva

aid: university-of-geneva
name: University of Geneva
description: 'The University of Geneva (Université de Genève, UNIGE) is a public research university in Geneva, Switzerland,
  founded in 1559, and ranked #93 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. Its public developer and API footprint is centered
  on open science and research infrastructure operated by the Division of Scientific Information (DIS) and the e-Research
  services: the Archive ouverte UNIGE institutional repository exposes metadata via a live OAI-PMH endpoint, the Yareta research-data-management
  platform (built on the DLCM stack) offers a REST API for preservation and access, and domain research groups publish specialized
  services such as the Terminus protein-prediction API. UNIGE maintains a public GitHub organization (dis-unige) for library
  and data tooling. There is no single unified public developer portal; most APIs are research- or service-specific.'
