• Research institutions can be extremely large • How can administrators showcase and monitor research activity, track competitors,
and stay abreast of current research inside large institutions, at other institutions, and globally?
Administrators
Current Challenges
• Research is becoming highly interdisciplinary• How can you find collaborators, track competitors, and stay abreast of current
research inside large institutions, at other institutions, and globally?• How can you find others with shared interests or expertise?• How can you build diverse teams? Find mentors? Be identified as a partner by
community groups?
Faculty
• Library administration or directors of core facilities want to align their strategic plan with the evolving research needs of their clientele.
• Identifying growth areas of research through increasing publications, focused areas of research and grant dollars enables this task to become more evidence-based.
Research Support: facilities and personnel
What is VIVO?
Populated with detailed profiles of faculty and researchers; displaying items such as publications, teaching, service, and professional affiliations.
A powerful search functionality for locating people and information within or across institutions.
An open-source semantic web application that enables the discovery of research and scholarship across disciplines in an institution.
VIVO harvests data from verified sources
VIVO data is available for reuse by web pages, applications, and other consumers both within and outside the institution.
Data stored as RDF triples using standard
ontology
Internal data sources:• HR Directory• Office of Sponsored Research• Institutional Repositories• Registrar System• Faculty Activity Systems• Events and Seminars
External data sources:• Publication warehouses-
e.g. PubMed, Web of Science, and others
• Grant databases: e.g. NSF/ NIH
• National Organizations: AAAS, AMA, etc.
Faculty and unit administrators can then
add additional information to their
profile.
Who can use VIVO?
…and many more!
A VIVO profile will allow researchers to:
Showcase credentials, expertise, skills, and professional achievements.
Connect within focus areas and geographic expertise.
Simplify reporting tasks.
Publish the URL or link the profile to other applications.
Find potential colleagues by research area, authorship, and collaborations.
Future versions of VIVO will:
• Simplify reporting tasks for everyone• Incorporate external data sources for
publications, grants, and more.• Display visualizations of complex
research networks and relationships.• Link data to external applications and
web pages.• Make more types of data and features
available to users
National VIVO Activity
International VIVO Activity
VIVO Collaborative Research Projects Program
Under this RFA, VIVO anticipatescommitting $250,000 dollars during the2010-2011 academic year to providefunding for people and institutionsinterested in developing tools that useVIVO data or code to positively impactscientists and science.
Resulting tools must be open source andavailable for download from the VIVOsoftware distribution web sites by the endof the funding period.
The due date for applications is December10, 2010 by 5:00pm EST. For completedetails, please see the full RFA text athttp://vivoweb.org/files/VIVO RFA.pdf.
How Can I Get Involved?Are you considering adoption of VIVO at your institution?
Do you have an application that could participate in the national network or have an idea for an application that would leverage the information provided by the national network?
Do you have data that could be useful to scientists on the national network?
