+<h2>Sep. 27, 2021 &nbsp;&nbsp; JASPAR tracks for human (hg19/hg38)</h2>
+<p>
+We are pleased to announce the release of the <a target="_blank" 
+href="/cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=hg38&g=jaspar&position=default">
+JASPAR Transcription Factors tracks</a> for human assemblies hg19/GRCh37 and hg38/GRCh38.</p> 
+<p>
+These data represent genome-wide predicted binding sites for TF (transcription factor) 
+binding profiles in the <a target="_blank" href="http://jaspar.genereg.net/about/">
+JASPAR CORE collection</a>. This collection is an open-source database containing a curated, 
+non-redundant set of binding profiles derived from published collections of experimentally 
+defined transcription factor binding sites for eukaryotes.</a>
+<p>
+JASPAR has been a popular <a target="_blank" href="/cgi-bin/hgHubConnect">Public Hub</a> 
+for many years and in collaboration with their group, the data can now be found as native 
+tracks. The hub will continue to exist uninterrupted and includes data on additional 
+assemblies mm10, danRer11, dm6, ce10, araTha1, and sacCer3.</a></p>
+<p>
+See the <a target="_blank" href="/cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=hg38&g=jaspar&position=default">
+track description page</a> for more information including data access, available filters, 
+display conventions, and direct links to the other assemblies.</a></p>
+<p>
+We would like to thank Anthony Mathelier and Oriol Fornes as well as the rest of the researchers 
+that develop and maintain the
+<a target="_blank" href="http://jaspar.genereg.net/about/"</a>JASPAR database</a>. We
+would also like to thank Daniel Schmelter and Lou Nassar for the development and release
+of these tracks.</p>

 <h2>Sep. 13, 2021 &nbsp;&nbsp; Cactus 241-way comparative genomics track for hg38</h2>
 <p>
 A new <a href="../../cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=hg38&g=cons241way&position=default"> 241-way
 comparative genomics track</a> has been added to the human
 (<a href="../../cgi-bin/hgGateway?db=hg38">GRCh38/hg38</a>) genome browser. This track
 shows multiple alignments of 241 vertebrate species and measurements of evolutionary
 conservation from the <a href="https://zoonomiaproject.org/the-project/"
 target="_blank">Zoonomia Project</a>.</p>
 <p>
 The multiple alignments were generated using
 the <a href="https://github.com/ComparativeGenomicsToolkit/cactus"
 target="_blank">Cactus comparative genomics alignment system</a> and the base-wise
 conservation scores were computed using phyloP from the PHAST package. For genome
 assemblies not available in the genome browser, there are alternative assembly hub
