Description |
|
| Goal: To identify opportunities for information science standards and standards development to facilitate bioscience and biomedical research. The last decade has seen an explosive increase in the use of information science and technology within all areas of biolgy and medicine. From molecular biology to genomics to organism modeling, research has become dependent on databases, software, and networks that proliferates everyday. Information technology standards are a key aspect to ensuring that this happens. This workshop brings together researchers in biology and medicine with experts on data, networks, and computation to discuss how and why such standards are required for bioscience and biomedical research. The meeting is jointly sponsored by NIST and the National Institutes of Health. |
