Objectives
What we are not here to do:
Tell investigators how to conduct research
Take over investigators’ data
Purchase $$$$ of computers and software
What we are here to do:
Address the needs of investigators by
Fostering a collaborative environment
Locating software and hardware resources
Developing interfaces for those resources
Vision
Vision
Our vision is to identify, map, and interface existing and projected
information, content and
services supporting research.
Diagnostic
,therapeutics and vaccines
Target discovery
Biological Research
Knowledge Generation
Data tailored,visualization and annotation
Data Storage,Queries,management
Some areas where we can contribute
Existing hardware/software resources, such as:
Data collection,
Data analysis,
Data storage (both long and short term),
Data retrieval,
Data sharing.
In addition, support or take responsibility for the following areas.
Database design, Data mining, Artificial intelligence
Web development (page, portal, or access)
Distributed computing, Grid, and Security
etc.
Additional Contributions
Other processes could be enhanced to
increase efficiency and reliability
Security
Automation
Common Resource
Sharing
Data Collection & Analysis
How is data currently collected?
What software and hardware are being used?
Would the researchers prefer an alternative?
Commercial, freeware and open source options
More secure and efficient environment
Are others on campus using same or similar?

Data Storage, Retrieval and Sharing
Short and long term storage
Local drive vs. network vs optical
Database vs Windows folders
Data sharing
Database/Network folders/SharePoint
Security
Data accessible only to those who need it
Benefits of IT Bioinformatics Support
Much data collection and analysis is repetitious. Automation can
decrease the time required as well as limit the opportunities for
error.
Well written interfaces for software increase their utility and
provide opportunity for alternative analysis (i.e. exploration and
discovery).
Hard drives fail, even new ones. Storing data in a secure
database reduces risk of lost data and allows for secure
viewing and/or sharing.
Creating a centralized infrastructure by means of utilizing
available and planned resources.
Increase productivity.
