Revised Authorship Diagram. In our efforts to continuously improve the wiki (and thanks to all who are commenting, revising, editing), this week, the authorship relationship diagram was revised. Several minor points were clarified, the dateTimeValue for publications was elaborated, and the presence of a vcard on a publication for the purpose of representing URL(s) – full text, alt-metrics, others – was added. Thanks to Jon Corson-Rikert for revising the diagram. These diagrams are created using an interesting piece of open source software "VUE" – Visual Understanding Environent, and available for download from Tufts University at http://vue.tufts.edu/. VUE is a very handy tool for drawing ontological reltionship diagrams – most of the VIVO ontology diagrams are drawn using VUE.
VIVO and SciENcv. Congratulations to Melissa Haendel, Oregon Health & Science University and Dave Eichmann, University of Iowa for their recent supplemental award from the National Institutes of Health National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences. The supplement to the OHSU Clinical and Translational Science Award will fund VIVO-ISF ontology development to align VIVO with SciENcv data schemas. SciENcv is a researcher profile system for all individuals who apply for, receive or are associated with research investments from US federal agencies. The supplement will also fund software development to enhance CTSAsearch, a large-scale effort to collect VIVO-compatible data provide a faceted search interface based on VIVO-ISF semantics. Together, the ontology work and the search work should provide a comprehensive search capability across NIH investigators.
Go VIVO!
