Dr. Umit Topaloglu to Speak on The Clinical Research Informatics Suite (CRIS):
The CRIS effort at University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) began five years ago and has been highly influenced by the caBIG® program. The CRIS Suite includes 20+ open-source tools, which are deployed within a single portal environment, and it is evolving constantly towards the big-data paradigm. Our main success factor has been having a clear communications channel with and the support of the Cancer Institute and UAMS leadership. The investment has started to result in the campus-wide usage of CRIS and an increased informatics awareness throughout our research community. Moreover, the CRIS Initiative is taking part in the National Children’s Study, which involves collaborations with a number of other institutions (and more).
