• The Goal– Improve all of science by providing the means for sharing and
using current, accurate and precise information regarding scientists’ interests, activities and accomplishments
N i l N ki f S i i• National Networking of Scientists– $12.3M 2‐year ARRA/NCRR award U24 RR029822, 9/25/2009– Seven schools– Extend VIVO software from Cornell to provide information by
scientists for scientists– Foster team science by providing tools for identifying potential
collaboratorscollaborators– Improve collaboration by creating tools using this information
for enhancing new and existing teams – Facilitate the science of team science– Facilitate the science of team science

Future Application – Find Scientists
Semantic search finds only items of interest
Future Application – Understand Collaborations
Future Application – Route Information
Future Application – Simplify Tasks
• Information in VIVO can be used to create– Biosketches
– Vitas
– Annual reports
– Department and research group web sites
• Information can be used toInformation can be used to populate profiles in collaborative tools, portals, ikiwikis, …
