ACTIVITY 4-S: CENTER FOR INFORMATION ARCHITECHTURE IN RESEARCH - SUPPLEMENT

本子项目是利用由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的众多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者（PI）可能已经从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。列出的机构是中心的，不一定是研究者的机构。这一补充申请的目标是增强波多黎各大学医学院校园研究界可用的计算支持和电信基础设施。这一目标是通过实现以下具体目标来实现的：在校园建立和运营一个AccessGrid节点，允许教师在线参加研讨会、会议、会议或其他活动，这些活动是由世界各地的其他AccessGrid节点开发的。2. 加强校园网络安全，保护以患者为基础的研究数据。3. 协助研究者开发、管理和/或维护与临床或基础研究相关的数据库。4. 协助研究人员解决与计算研究硬件和软件操作有关的日常问题。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The goal of this supplemental application was to enhance the computational support and telecommunications infrastructure available to the research community at the University of Puerto Rico Medical Sciences Campus. This goal was accomplished by the attainment of the following specific aims: 1. Establish and operate an AccessGrid node at the campus that will allow faculty to participate online in seminars, meetings, conferences or other activities developed at other AccessGrid nodes across the world. 2. Enhance network security at the Campus in order to protect patient-based research data. 3. Provide assistance to investigators in the development, management and/or maintenance of research-relevant databases for clinical or basic research. 4. Provide assistance to investigators in solving day-to-day problems related to the operation of computational research hardware and software.
