DBGaP fhir API项目的总体目标是创建一个研究数据可互操作的环境，研究人员可以跨研究查找和分析给定类型的变量。在过去的两年里，LHNCBC和NCBI共同努力创建了一个冷杉研究数据库，以提供对10亿个DBGaP观测的开放和授权访问。我们的团队已经更好地理解了观察在DBGaP中是如何表示的，并开发了修复许多异常情况的策略。资金将支持继续开发数据库数据库应用编程接口，努力改进访问，并继续改进性能，以简化数据库搜索的可用性。资金支持还将进一步开发Research Data Finder，以帮助在DBGaP研究中和跨DBGaP研究进行发现。NLM将在整个项目开发过程中继续与客户和利益相关者接触。

The overall goal of the dbGaP FHIR API project is to create an environment where research data is interoperable, and researchers can find and analyze variables of a given kind across studies. Over the past two years, a joint effort between LHNCBC and NCBI has created a FHIR research database to provide open and authorized access to >1 billion dbGaP observations. Our team has gotten a better understanding of how observations are represented in dbGaP and developed strategies to fix many of the irregularities. Funding will support the continued development of the dbGaP FHIR API, efforts to improve access, and continued performance improvements to ease usability of searching the database. Funding support will also further develop the Research Data Finder to aid discovery in, and across, dbGaP studies. NLM will continue to engage with customers and stakeholders throughout project development.
