BioConnector Collaboration Group

Collaborations are created by developing opportunities for students and investigators in clinical and translational science to connect with peers who have similar research interest. In today’s computing environment, online communities such as Facebook and LinkedIn have become gathering places for users who share common interests.

The Bioconnector Collaboration Group will investigate how similar social networking software might be leveraged to impact and enhance the peer connection process.
