Direct2Experts: a pilot national network to demonstrate interoperability among research-networking platforms

Abstract: Research-networking tools use data-mining and social networking to enable expertise discovery, matchmaking and collaboration, which are important facets of team science and translational research. Several commercial and academic platforms have been built, and many institutions have deployed these products to help their investigators find local collaborators. Recent studies, though, have shown the growing importance of multiuniversity teams in science. Unfortunately, the lack of a standard data-exchange model a… Show more

“…The emergence of this area of scholarship was directly influenced by the availability of digital data on the Web. Indeed, the momentum in this field is on the verge of a tipping point because of a major commitment by the US National Institutes of Health to fund a national research networking initiative that is making much of these data available using the linked open data standards [59].…”

“…Neither RNS is yet compatible with research networking recommendations adopted by the CTSA Consortium Executive and Steering Committee in October 2011 (https://www.ctsacentral.org/best%20practices/research%20networking), however, one strategy under consideration is to link UMNProfiles and Experts@Minnesota to permit cross-system search capabilities that leverage the VIVO ontology. Both UMN RNS tools are part of the national direct2experts network (Weber, 2011). …”
