项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of Wyoming, in cooperation with Farragut Systems, Inc. and established research university partners in the Western United States, will create a comprehensive strategic plan for the Western Regional Biomedical Collaboratory, or WRBC. The mission of the WRBC will be to build upon human and technological infrastructure developed through prior and ongoing NIH support to create a culture of interdisciplinary collaboration in biomedical research among several universities in the Western United States. The long-term goal for the WRBC will be to provide tools and technology for (1) sharing information and knowledge among the participating institutions, (2) searching, visualizing, and manipulating information using context-appropriate information management techniques, and (3) supporting communication and collaboration among researchers in the biomedical sciences at these institutions. This two-year project will result in a comprehensive, written plan for establishing and maintaining biomedical research collaborations across the western region. This program will bring together representatives from each of the participating research institutions, along with experienced information systems developers and experts from the IAIMS community, to assess the needs of biomedical researchers in the network and develop a plan to facilitate information sharing and research among them. Policies and strategies for encouraging and supporting such collaboration will be addressed in the plan. The planning program will also support the development of a prototype distributed information management system that will provide context-appropriate information to support effective searching, sharing, and stewardship of research data and related documents such as published or in-press papers, technical reports, etc. This prototype will link research information to standardized descriptors that can be easily searched by authorized users in a variety of problem-specific ways. The prototype will be used by the planners and researchers in the network to evaluate the needs of researchers for locating and sharing research knowledge and developing collaborative relationships with colleagues at geographically dispersed sites.

描述（由申请人提供）：怀俄明大学与Farragut Systems，Inc。合作，并在美国西部建立了研究生合作伙伴，将为西方地区生物医学合作社或WRBC制定全面的战略计划。 WRBC的使命是建立在通过先前和正在进行的NIH支持的人类和技术基础设施基础上，以在美国西部的几所大学中建立生物医学研究中的跨学科合作文化。 WRBC的长期目标是为（1）在参与机构之间共享信息和知识的工具和技术，（2）使用适合上下文的信息管理技术搜索，可视化和操纵信息，以及（3）支持这些机构生物医学科学中研究人员之间的沟通和协作。这个为期两年的项目将制定一个全面的书面计划，以建立和维持整个西部地区的生物医学研究合作。该计划将汇集来自每个参与研究机构的代表，以及来自IAIMS社区的经验丰富的信息系统开发人员和专家，以评估网络中生物医学研究人员的需求，并制定一项计划，以促进他们的信息共享和研究。该计划将在计划中阐明鼓励和支持这种合作的政策和策略。该计划计划还将支持开发原型分布式信息管理系统，该系统将提供适当的信息，以支持有效的搜索，共享以及研究数据及相关文档的管理，例如已发布或印刷论文，技术报告等。该原型将将研究信息链接到标准化的描述者与可以通过各种问题的授权用户搜索的标准化的描述者。该原型将被网络中的计划人员和研究人员使用，以评估研究人员在地理位置分散站点的研究知识以及与同事建立协作关系的需求。
