Specific Aims
- Promote a sustainable and extensible informatics infrastructure to support the diversity of clinical and translational research needs. BIBCE Core resources will be enhanced to support: (1) expanded Data Sharing & Analysis; (2) statewide Cohort Discovery; and, (3) a more integrated approach to Data Collection & Management.
- Develop innovative data, software, and technology solutions in collaboration with clinical and translational researchers.
- Provide state-of-the-art informatics training and engagement with clinical and translational research stakeholders.
The Biomedical Informatics support went above and beyond what we needed for computation and data storage. Having all of our data sets in one secure location strengthens our ability to house data sets with sensitive information. With this computational support, we can focus on the science that matters for improving public health.
