+<h2>Dec. 15, 2020 &nbsp;&nbsp; New V35 GENCODE genes track for Human (hg19/GRCh37)</h2>
+<p>
+We are pleased to announce a new GENCODE Genes annotation track, which corresponds
+to <a href="http://www.ensembl.info/2020/08/20/ensembl-101-has-been-released/"
+target="_blank">Ensembl 101</a>, for the: <a target="_blank" 
+href="../../cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=hg19&c=chr21&g=wgEncodeGencodeV35lift37">hg19/GRCh37</a> assembly.
+The GENCODE V35 annotations were mapped to hg38/GRCh38 and then back-mapped
+to the hg19/GRCh37 assembly. The gene set contains the following
+tracks:</p>
+<ul>
+  <li>Basic - a subset of the <em>Comprehensive set</em>.</li>
+  <li>Comprehensive - all GENCODE coding and non-coding transcript annotations, including
+      polymorphic pseudogenes. This includes both manual and automatic annotations.</li>
+  <li>Pseudogenes - all annotations except polymorphic pseudogenes.</li></ul>
+<p>
+Details on each release can be found on the <a target="_blank" 
+href="https://www.gencodegenes.org/">GENCODE site</a>. This includes <a target="_blank" 
+href="https://www.gencodegenes.org/human/stats.html">statistics on each release</a>.
+<p>We would like to thank the <a target="_blank" 
+href="https://www.gencodegenes.org/pages/gencode.html">GENCODE project</a> for providing these
+annotations. We would also like to thank Mark Diekhans and Lou Nassar for the development and
+release of this track.</p>
