Biomedical Informatics -
Comprehensive Informatics Resource Center

Core Description

Translational research requires the aggregation of clinical and research data in a user-friendly, easily queriedAlan VanBiervliet repository that maintains the privacy and security of the data. The enterprise wide Comprehensive Informatics Resource Center (CIRC) was formed to develop and evaluate a biomedical knowledge grid to support translational research. CIRC is coordinating the integration of clinical and research data resources into an advanced grid-computing environment designed to improve access to the data, computational resources, instruments, and expertise. CIRC is also developing and supporting enterprise-wide translational research management tools and processes. In addition CIRC is providing support and educational programs to promote the use of informatics technologies in clinical translational research and the sharing of information across communities. The academic component of the CIRC, the Division of Informatics, has been formed to support informatics education and research.
