  2. Brief Journey Through the Seven Centers

  3. NIH Roadmap National Centers for Biomedical Computing (NCBC) Physics-Based Simulation of Biological Structures (SIMBIOS) Russ Altman, PI Informatics for IntegratingBiology and the Bedside (i2b2) Isaac Kohane, PI National Center for Integrative Biomedical Informatics (NCIBI) Brian D. Athey, PI National Alliance for Medical Imaging Computing (NA-MIC) Ron Kikinis, PI The National Center For Biomedical Ontology (NCBO) Mark Musen, PI Multiscale Analysis of Genomic and Cellular Networks (MAGNet) Andrea Califano, PI Center for Computational Biology (CCB) Arthur Toga, PI

  4. Physics-based Simulation of Biological Structures (SIMBIOS)PI: Russ Altman, M.D., Ph.D. PI Institution: Stanford University This Center will develop, disseminate, and support a simulation tool kit (SimTK) that will enable biomedical scientists to develop and share accurate models and simulations of biological structures from atoms to organisms. SimTK will be an open-source, extensible, object-oriented framework for manipulating data, models, and simulations. The software will include advanced capabilities for modeling the geometry and physics of biological systems, generating the governing differential equations of these systems, integrating the equations to simulate the system dynamics, and interpreting the simulation results through comparison with experimental data. http://cbmc-web.stanford.edu/simbios/

  5. National Alliance for Medical Imaging Computing (NAMIC)PI: Ron Kikinis, M.D.PI Institution: Brigham and Women's Hospital The National Alliance for Medical Image Computing (NAMIC), proposed here, will integrate the efforts of leading researchers with a shared vision for development and distribution of the tools required to advance the power of imaging as a methodology for quantifying and analyzing biomedical data. This shared vision is based on a thorough composition of computational methods, from image acquisition to analysis, that builds on the best available practices in algorithm development, software engineering, and application of medical image computing for understanding and mitigating the effects of disease and disability. NAMIC’s goal is to develop, integrate, and deploy computational image analysis systems that are applicable to multiple diseases, in different organs. To provide focus for these efforts, a set of key problems in schizophrenia research has been selected as the initial Driving Biological Projects (DBPs) for NAMIC. http://www.na-mic.org/index.htm

  6. Informatics for Integrating Biology and the Bedside (I2B2)PI: Isaac Kohane, M.D., Ph.D.PI Institution: Brigham and Women's Hospital I2B2 (Informatics for Integrating Biology and the Bedside) is an NIH-funded National Center for Biomedical Computing based at Partners HealthCare System. The I2B2 Center is developing a scalable informatics framework that will bridge clinical research data and the vast data banks arising from basic science research in order to better understand the genetic bases of complex diseases. This knowledge will facilitate the design of targeted therapies for individual patients with diseases having genetic origins. http://www.partners.org/i2b2

  7. Center for Computational Biology (CCB) PI: Arthur Toga, Ph.D. PI Institution: University of California at Los Angeles The Center for Computational Biology (CCB) was established to develop, implement and test computational biology methods that are applicable across spatial scales and biological systems. Our objective is to help elucidate characteristics and relationships that would otherwise be impossible to detect and measure. The CCB employs an integrative approach, both in terms of the biology and the participating disciplines. The Center focuses on the brain, specifically on neuroimaging, and involves research in mathematics, computational methods and informatics. It also is involved in the development of a new form of software infrastructure – the computational atlas – to manage multidimensional data spanning many scales and modalities. This will be specifically applied to the study of brain structure and function in health and disease, but will have much broader applicability to both biomedical computing and computational biology. http://www.loni.ucla.edu/CCB/

  12. Multiscale Analysis of Genomic and Cellular Networks (MAGNet) PI: Andrea Califano Ph.D. PI Institution: Columbia University • To study the organization of the complex networks of biochemical interactions whose concerted activity determines cellular processes at increasing levels of granularity. • To provide an integrative computational framework to organize molecular interactions in the cell into manageable context dependent components. • To develop interoperable computational models and tools that can leverage such cellular interaction maps to elucidate key biological processes and to dissect complex diseases.

  14. Goals of Software and Data Integration Working Group (SDIWG) The RFA states the goal of creating “the networked national effort to build the computational infrastructure for biomedical computing for the nation”. In furthering this, the goals of the SDIWG in concert with the Project Team and Centers staff are: 1. To advance the domain sciences, and promote software interoperability and data exchange. 2. To capture the collective knowledge of software engineering and practices among the Centers and publish this knowledge widely

  43. Suggestion for Next Step • Choose one of the existing ontologies as a starting point, perhaps a combination of the MAGNet and CCB ontologies. • Find one person at each NCBC who is interested in the issue of categorizing their software and who is willing to work with the SDIWG on incorporating their taxonomy into the chosen top level ontology. • The NCBC representatives will incorporate their software into the ontology directly or suggest changes needed in order to incorporate their software. • After the software are all integrated into one ontology, a set of attributes to describe the software will be developed. A format for storing the ontology will be agreed upon. • Each NCBC will create and host an instance of the ontology to describe their resources. OWL/Semantic Web may be used.
