Yes indeed we do.  Andra is working on a scheduler for the update bot now.
 (And thanks to the tips about wbeditentity function it should go faster
now...)

We have a grant to expand the scope of the original gene wiki project (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_Wiki) to a) use wikidata as its
structural foundation and b) expand into other areas such as genes and
diseases.

Looking forward to continuing to work with the community to make wikidata a
key hub of open biological and medical information on the Web.
