BIRN featured on Frontiers!
from BIRN - Biomedical Informatics Research Network
(2011/2/18 4:51)

Congratulations to BIRN members Naveen Ashish, Jose Luis Ambite, Maria Muslea, and Jessica A. Turner on the publishing of their article, Neuroscience data integration through mediation: an (F)BIRN case study , on the Frontiers in Neuroinformatics website!
You can find the article here: http://www.frontiersin.org/neuroinformatics/10.3389/fninf.2010.00118/abstract
Below is the abstract:
We describe an application of the BIRN mediator to the integration of neuroscience experimental data sources. The BIRN mediator is a general purpose solution to the problem of providing integrated, semantically-consistent access to biomedical data from multiple, distributed, heterogeneous data sources. The system follows the mediation approach, where the data remains at the sources, providers maintain control of the data, and the integration system retrieves data from the sources in real-time in response to client queries. Our aim with this paper is to illustrate how domain-specific data inte ...

BIRN announces today an upgrade to the Group Management capability – currently used for the Function BIRN group but useable for other communities as well. It includes a new portal where groups can manage and access their data projects. Upgraded features include a revamped web interface as well as the ability to delete groups and users. For general documentation about this capability, go to: https://wiki.birncommunity.org:8443/display/BIRNDOC/Group+Management .
Function BIRN users should go to their community page for specific information about using this capability: https://wiki.birncommunity.org:8443/display/BIRNDOC/Function+BIRN .
BIRN is also happy to open the new BIRN Documentation site to the public. This site publishes documentation on mature capabilities for BIRN communities as well as the biomedical community at large. This is a test release for a few weeks and feedback is encouraged:
