Innovations in Biomedical Computational Science and Technology: SBIR/STTR Initiative
Funding Contact(s): Yuan Liu, Ph.D.
Funding Categories: International Activities
Brief Description:
There exists an expanding need to speed the progress of biomedical research through the power of computing to manage and analyze
data and to model biological processes. The NIH is interested in promoting research and developments in biomedical computational
science and technology that will support rapid progress in areas of scientific opportunity in biomedical research. As defined
here biomedical computing or biomedical information science and technology includes, database design, graphical interfaces,
querying approaches, data retrieval, data visualization and manipulation, data integration through the development of integrated
analytical tools, and tools for electronic collaboration, as well as computational research including the development of structural,
functional, integrative, and analytical models and simulations.
