Big Science, Team Science, and Open Science for Neuroscience

Logan Wright Award: Team science, team care, team training, and team leadership: my experience.

I worked in a basic science biology laboratory throughout my undergraduate years. But I was not trained in genomics, systems biology, neurophysiology, or modern molecular aspects of medicine. I conducted behavioral intervention studies for my master’s thesis and doctoral dissertation (Powers, Blount, Bachanas, Cotter, & Swan, 1993; Powers & Roberts, 1995). But I did not learn about the phases o...

Survey on Perception of People Regarding Utilization of Computer Science & Information Technology in Manipulation of Big Data, Disease Detection & Drug Discovery

this research explores the manipulation of biomedical big data and diseases detection using automated computing mechanisms. As efficient and cost effective way to discover disease and drug is important for a society so computer aided automated system is a must. This paper aims to understand the importance of computer aided automated system among the people. The analysis result from collected da...

Big data, open science and the brain: lessons learned from genomics

The BRAIN Initiative aims to break new ground in the scale and speed of data collection in neuroscience, requiring tools to handle data in the magnitude of yottabytes (10(24)). The scale, investment and organization of it are being compared to the Human Genome Project (HGP), which has exemplified "big science" for biology. In line with the trend towards Big Data in genomic research, the promise...
