Making sure standards are fit for purpose
The Metadata Model and Mapping Registry (MMMR) enables researchers to find a representative collection of meta-data artefacts (models, formats, minimal information guidelines, biobank data dictionaries, detailed clinical/research models) of use to the biomedical science community.
Life science data interoperability resources kick off collaboration
In the life sciences, users are faced with a choice of multiple resources to facilitate and promote the use of standards, policies, models, identifiers, databases, tools, services, and ontologies. Some of these resources are well established while others are less mature and, although the scope of each is quite specific, there is potential overlap.
Standards and data harmonization: prerequisites to data integration
BioMedBridges workshop brings domain experts together
The workshop, hosted on 24-25 June by VUMC in Amsterdam, was attended by project partners and invited external experts from CDISC, BioSharing.org and identifiers.org. The aims of the workshop were to explore several aspects of standardisation, primarily:
