Interoperability at all scales: from data bits and bytes to national public health surveillance

Seminar Title: Interoperability at all scales: from data bits and bytes to national public health surveillance Presenter: Melissa Haendel, PhD, FACMI Director of Precision Health & Translational Informatics Sarah Graham Kenan Distinguished Professor, Department of Genetics Distinguished Professor, School of Data Science and Society University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill Seminar Abstract: Making data reusable for discovery and shared analytics is a laborious, specific-skill requiring task that most data providers do not have the resources, expertise, or perspective to perform. Equally challenged are the data re-users, who function in a landscape of bespoke schemas, formats, and coding – when they can get past understanding the licensing and access control issues. Making the most of our collective data requires partnerships between data providers and data consumers, as well as sophisticated strategies to address this myriad of issues. Furthermore, when transforming data to common models, there are data quality issues, errors, and a need to keep the transforms current. Rigor, reproducibility, and ethical considerations suggest that full provenance be recorded. All of the above is essentially moving careful manual curation and review to automation at enterprise scale. A robust dynamic relationship between those curating and automated systems and reports is also required. This talk will review different communities’ endeavors towards these ends from across biological scales and across the translational spectrum.
