Proposal for a Workshop on Reducing Barriers for the Management, Integration, and Public Sharing of Large and Complex Data among Biologists Working at Genome-Phenome to Macrosystem

摘要题目：减少基因组-表型组到宏观系统水平的生物学家管理、整合和公共共享大型复杂数据的障碍研讨会提案（EF-1450894）美国生物科学研究所（AIBS）将为植物科学和环境宏观系统的生物学家召开一次研讨会，讨论联邦资助研究的公众获取问题。该研讨会将重点讨论与研究相关的挑战，这些研究需要结合来自多个来源的数据来进行研究。考虑数据管理实践和问题的需要对于需要和产生大量复杂数据的生物学研究团体来说尤其紧迫，特别是当结果数据将用于未来的研究时。虽然不同的生物学领域可能需要不同的数据，但这些相同的研究团体面临着与管理和整合这些复杂数据有关的共同（和独特）问题，遵守标准和要求，以及他们如何提高他们的科学水平及其对通过联邦税收支持它的公众的持续有用性。宏观系统生物学社区致力于定量、跨学科、系统导向的生物圈过程及其与气候、土地利用和入侵物种在区域到大陆尺度上的复杂相互作用的研究。系统学、进化生物学和生物收集界也在努力解决“大数据”和“长尾数据”问题。基因组-现象组研究的领域包括但不限于植物生理学、定量遗传学、生物化学和生物工程，特别是具有经济意义的植物。由于来自不同领域的研究人员相互学习彼此的数据、工具和技术，本次研讨会具有广泛的影响，新的科学问题和机会有望出现，其中许多是以前独立的学术领域的交叉点。加上公众获取的增加，随着不同的研究团体获取其他学科收集的数据，这些结果可以刺激新的私营部门创新，并有助于新的科学发现。研讨会的结果和进一步跨学科合作的计划将在一篇可公开访问的文章中分享，该文章将发表在《生物科学》杂志上。

AbstractTitle: Proposal for a Workshop on Reducing Barriers for the Management, Integration, and Public Sharing of Large and Complex Data among Biologists Working at Genome-Phenome to Macrosystems Levels (EF-1450894)American Institute of Biological Sciences (AIBS) will convene a workshop for biologists from plant sciences and environmental macrosystems to discuss public access to federally funded research. The workshop will focus on challenges associated with research that requires combining data from multiple sources to conduct the research. The need to consider data management practices and problems is especially pressing for research communities in biology that require and generate large complex data, particularly when the resulting data will be used for future research. While different fields of biology may require different data these same research communities have common (and unique) issues they face related to managing and integrating these complex data, complying with standards and requirements, and how they can improve their science and its ongoing usefulness to the general public that support it through federal tax dollars.The macrosystems biology community works on quantitative, interdisciplinary, systems-oriented research on biosphere processes and their complex interactions with climate, land use, and invasive species at regional to continental scales. The systematics, evolutionary biology, and biological collections communities are also grappling with "big data" and "long tail data" issues. The genome-to-phenome community works in disciplines that include, but are not limited to, plant physiology, quantitative genetics, biochemistry, and bioengineering, especially in plants of economic importance.This workshop has broad reaching implications as researchers from different fields learn of each other's data, tools, and techniques, new scientific questions and opportunities can be expected to emerge, many at the intersection of previously independent lines of scholarship. Coupled with increased public access, the results can stimulate new private sector innovations and contribute to new scientific discoveries as different research communities access data collected by other disciplines. Results of the workshop and plans for further cross-disciplinary collaboration will be shared in a publicly accessible article that will be placed in the BioScience journal.
