U.S.-Peru Workshop: International Collaborations in Cyberinfrastructure-enabled Genomics Workshop

Buell0742699这次为期3天的研讨会将由NSF和拉丁美洲(秘鲁、智利、巴西等)的科学机构联合主办。研讨会将探讨机遇、挑战和突破性活动，帮助将国际合作基因组研究带到一个新的水平。会议将包括30-40名受邀的基因组学研究人员、CI技术专家和资助机构代表。它将侧重于确定将促进北美和拉丁美洲伙伴关系的活动，着眼于采取更具包容性的西半球办法。结果将包括对后续活动的建议和对投资的建议，以促进国际基因组学-CI研究、教育和外联合作。在秘鲁的主要外国合作者是基因组研究部门负责人Gisella Orjeda博士和Peruana Cayetano Heredia大学物理、信息学和数学系教授Jose Segovia Juarez博士。该讲习班将由国际科学和工程办公室、数字基础设施办公室以及计算机和信息科学与工程局联合支持。

Buell0742699 This 3-day workshop is to be jointly sponsored by NSF and the science agencies of Latin America (Peru, Chile, Brazil, others). The workshop will explore opportunities, challenges and breakthrough activities to help bring international collaborative genomics research to a new level. The meeting will include 30-40 invited genomics researchers, CI technologists, and funding agency representatives. It will focus on identifying activities that will enable North and Latin American partnerships, with an eye towards a more inclusive western hemisphere approach. Outcomes will include recommendations for follow-up activities and suggestions for investments to promote international genomics-CI research, education and outreach collaborations. Key foreign collaborators in Peru are Dr. Gisella Orjeda, Head of the Genomics Research Unit, and Dr. Jose Segovia Juarez, professor, department of Physics, Informatics and Mathematics.at the University Peruana Cayetano Heredia. This workshop will be jointly supported by the Office of International Science and Engineering, the Office of Cyberinfrastructure, and the Directorate for Computer and Information Science and Engineering.
