"The time has come to fundamentally rethink how we handle thebuilding of knowledge in biomedical sciences today. This bookdescribes how the computational sciences have transformed intobeing a key knowledge broker, able to integrate and operate acrossdivergent data types."--Bryn Williams-Jones, Associate ResearchFellow, Pfizer
The pharmaceutical industry utilizes an extended network ofpartner organizations in order to discover and develop new drugs,however there is currently little guidance for managing informationand resources across collaborations.
Featuring contributions from the leading experts in a range ofindustries, Collaborative Computational Technologies for BiomedicalResearch provides information that will help organizations makecritical decisions about managing partnerships, including:
* Serving as a user manual for collaborations
* Tackling real problems from both human collaborative and dataand informatics perspectives
* Providing case histories of biomedical collaborations andtechnology-specific chapters that balance technological depth withaccessibility for the non-specialist reader
A must-read for anyone working in the pharmaceuticals industryor academia, this book marks a major step towards widespreadcollaboration facilitated by computational technologies.
