Profiles Research Networking Software
Profiles Research Networking Software is a research networking and expertise mining tool. It not only shows traditional directory information, but also illustrates how each person is connected to others in the broad research community
This searchable library of web-based electronic CV’s speeds the process of finding RCMI researchers with specific areas of expertise for collaboration and professional networking. Built-in network analysis and data visualization tools allow administrators to generate research portfolios of RCMI institutions, discover connections between parts of RCMI consortium, and understand what factors influence collaboration.
COMING SOON
RCMI Research Resources Platform
The RCMI Research Resources Platform is a searchable database of core laboratory facilities at RCMI institutions. It supports a wide variety of core facilities that provide specialized services, equipment, and staff to the biomedical research community.
The Dataverse will be launching soon
Developed at Harvard’s Institute for Quantitative Social Science (IQSS) and maintained by the community since 2006, the platform supports qualitative and quantitative data, documentation, and code, automatically registers data with an indexed global persistent DOI, and contains configurable workflows to manage permissions, access controls, and terms of use.
RCMI CC will be using Dataverse as a repository for data archiving and sharing, and to enable replication as well as ensure rigor and reproducibility for all analyses and papers derived from RCMI Awardees.
