We use information technology to manage and analyze data for research, providing tools and expertise for data collection, storage, and analysis to help researchers turn data into knowledge. This support is essential for optimizing research processes, ensuring data quality, and streamlining operations like data capture and reporting.
Our focus areas span the landscape of data science and research informatics, including:
- Study planning and grant writing
- Coordinated and accelerated institutional approvals (Research Informatics and Data Governance Group – RIDGe)
- Cohort discovery
- Data access
- Data, metadata, and process modeling and engineering
- Software for data capture and management
- Data harmonization and sharing
- Data-readiness for analysis and application of data science methods
