Overview
The NIH is exploring the concept of “Pilot” and “Grand Challenges” as a cost-effective means to engage the research community to address a common goal. The long-term goal is to set up an informatics and cloud-based infrastructure to store data sets from each research domain and host a competition. Members of the national and international community can compete on applying their user-developed software packages to achieve a defined performance level for decision support. The relative performance of these software tools would be compared and a series of prizes awarded for the top performers. The experience gained by the research teams that participate in these challenges will help them to be more competitive in later seeking R01 research funding in informatics and decision support systems.
