NIH Big Data to Knowledge (BD2K) • BD2K aims to develop new approaches, standards, methods, tools, software, and competencies that will enhance the use of biomedical Big Data by supporting research, implementation, and training in data science and other relevant fields. • Initial 7-year funding plan (thru FY2020) • Begins in FY2014 • Funding: $27M in FY14, scaling to $100M per year in FY16 - 20
BD2K: History • Biomedical Information Science and Technology Initiative (BISTI) • National Centers for Biomedical Computing (NCBC) • Broad-based FOAs (hardening of software, innovations in software, SBIR) • BISTI funding page • Advisory Committee to the Director Data and Informatics Working Group (ACD DIWG) • Report (June 2012) • NIH Big Data Implementation (‘BD2K’) • Started out as internal working groups shadowing ACD DIWG • Bifurcated in to BD2K and Infrastructure Plus
BD2K: Four Programmatic Areas • Facilitating Broad Use of Biomedical Big Data • Data Catalog • Enabling Research Use of Clinical Data • Frameworks for Data Standards • Developing and Disseminating Analysis Methods and Software for Biomedical Big Data • Software Catalog • Platforms for Data Analysis • Enhancing Training for Biomedical Big Data • Biologists or clinicians to cross-train in the quantitative sciences • Quantitative scientists to cross-train in clinical/biological domains • Establishing Centers of Excellence for Biomedical Big Data • FOA (RFA-HG-13-009): Centers of Excellence for Big Data Computing in the Biomedical Sciences (U54) • NIH-Initiated Centers
Trans-NIH Data Science: Governance NIH Director Associate Director for Data Science (ADDS) NIH Director’s Steering Committee Scientific Data Council (SDC) Philip Bourne BD2K
