The Rutgers Institute for Quantitative Biomedicine and the Eastern Regional
Network are co-organizing an online workshop to solicit feedback from
electron microscopists and electron microscopy facility managers regarding
their information technology (IT) challenges. The goal of our Voice of the
Customer exercise is to ascertain the needs of this rapidly growing
community of structural biologists for enumeration in an NSF Mid-scale
Research Infrastructure-1 application (Program Solicitation NSF 21- 505,
Mid-scale RI-1).
Our proposal seeks funds to establish robust federated IT data transfer
networking and data management solutions among ERN-member institutions that
will enable facile and secure online access to electron microscopy
facilities and the large volumes of data generated therefrom.
Electron microscopists and electron microscopy facility managers working in
ERN-member institutions are strongly encouraged to register (at no cost)
and contribute to the success of the Mid-scale RI-1 proposal by explaining
current IT infrastructure pain points and helping to identify future
enhancements for remote access and control of imaging experiments by
structural biologists using institutional, regional, and national electron
microscopy facilities. Interested parties from outside the ERN, including
ex-US institutions, are similarly encouraged to register (at no cost) and
participate. The ERN is committed to identifying IT infrastructure
solutions that can be disseminated across the nation and around the world.
