VIVO Update and Many Flavors of Search Mike Conlon University of Florida
Since February • VIVO version 1.3 completed – search, user accounts, science map, QR codes, patents, interface • Spreadsheet upload, Google Refine, Harvester • Cross site search, VIVO searchlight, Direct2Experts • Cooperative projects – Harvard, Northwestern, Rochester, OHSU • Mini grants to Pittsburgh, Stonybrook, Duke, Indiana, Weill, ORCID • Adoptions at APA, USDA, 50 US Schools. Tests at NIH • Mexico, Costa Rica, Puerto Rico, India, Australia, China, UK, Netherlands, Brazil • Thomson-Reuters, Elsevier, Microsoft Research • OpenPhacts, Federal Demonstration Partnership, Community of Science • Workshop, Hackathon, Implementation Fest, Conference
What is VIVO? • VIVO is open source, community maintained software tools for research discovery and networking • VIVO is open standards and open linked data regarding science – people, papers/products, funding, events, resources, projects, data, concepts – and the relationships between them • VIVO is a world community of collaborators – scientists, implementers, developers
Tools, Data and Community VIVO Systems

Tools, Data and Community VIVO Systems Harvard Profiles Other Compatible Systems
Tools, Data and Community Linked Open Data in a common format, regardless of the system providing data
Research Discovery and Networking Tools • VIVO search – research discovery and networking • Duke, Florida, DERI – web site plug-ins for reuse of VIVO data • UCSF – find investigators “like me” across the network • Harvard – visualize publication patterns • Northwestern – C-IKnow Recommender • Pittsburgh – Digital Vita – produce vita and biosketches • VIVO Search Light – find experts related to any page on the world wide web • Direct2Experts – get counts of researchers matching criteria and link to them • Community of Science – use linked open data for faculty interests, match to opportunities • Federal Researcher Profile System – avoid duplication of entry, simplify administration • OpenPhacts (EU) – link profiles to concepts, provide provenance for assertions, identity management • NRN visualization – show data sources and their inventory of data
CTSA Consortium Adoption of Linked Open Data for Research Discovery and Networking Notes Nine other CTSAs are evaluating either VIVO or Profiles Elsevier has said they can provide linked open data – either directly, or through a VIVO add-on. Northwestern will implement a VIVO add-on for their SciVal system as a model for others Many CTSAs has researcher directories and/or researcher networking systems. Some – Pittsburgh Digital Vita, Iowa Loki, Stanford CAP – may be retrofitted to provide open linked data. Others may provide a VIVO or Profiles add-on Forty CTSAs continue to use WebCamp. A WebCamp to VIVO connector could be written to provide linked open data for these CTSA investigators
Barriers to Adoption • Cost/Commitment • Time and Effort • Available data • Institution-wide implementation beyond CTSA mission? • Benefits • Emerging tools will be compelling? • Are tools for faculty or administration? • Cross site search?
Addressing the Barriers • VIVO, Profiles and Elsevier, all provide rapid start-up. Commercial support available for each • Sites can add-on to their existing systems to provide linked open data (eg Loki) • Sites can “pipe” data from their existing systems to a linked open data system • Focus on CTSA level implementation • Additional communication consortium wide • More tools needed for investigators • Faceted cross site search is coming
