Platform for Data-Driven Discovery in Biomedicine
Information Commons is a platform for data-driven research that provides access to shared multi-modal patient- and population-level biomedical data and a wide range of exploration and analysis tools via secure computational environments. Information Commons welcomes self-serve use of the data and resources while providing support with a talented team of informatics and data science experts and a growing research data science community. Information Commons aims to minimize the time researchers and data scientists need to spend on preparation for projects and get to answering the research question as soon as possible. Information Commons vision is to enable scientific discovery and its translation to clinical care and precision medicine by lowering barriers to access and linking together data, computational capabilities, and shared knowledge.
