Jon Hallsteinn Hallsson (ID: 000000ea94764d91) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/28/2020 I was not entirely sure at first, but this turns out to be a very convenient and most useful addtion to Chrome.

Varga Julia (ID: 000000c4930dd27a) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/15/2020 One of the most useful tools for biology-related research. No more copy-paste and mapping of individual protein names to different databases. And it works perfectly.

Yeogha Yoon (ID: 0000001cb02e3486) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/17/2019 This might be the single best Chrome extension I've had. For a computational biologist especially, it's a must have.

John Ouyang (ID: 0000003550c48480) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/12/2019 Awesome tool for people working in biology in genomics

Karen Colwill (ID: 0000004d255bd3d4) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/28/2019 A real time-saver. Being able to find curated information on a gene or protein of interest without leaving a web-page is super useful and this tool could easily become a 'must-have' for molecular and cellular biologists.
