The Cyberinfrastructure for Collaborative Science wiki

This is a snapshot of the Cyberinfrastructure for Collaborative Science wiki, taken in June 2015. Its live version is at https://www.nescent.org/wg_collabsci/Main_Page.

2011 Cyberinfrastructure for Collaborative Science Workshop

This wiki originated as the wiki for the Cyberinfrastructure for Collaborative Science Summit funded by NSF and held May 18-20, 2011, at the National Evolutionary Synthesis Center (NESCent) in Durham, North Carolina. The workshop brought together a diverse group of informatics practitioners, social scientists, technology experts, and biologists with different perspectives and experiences on enabling multi-disciplinary research collaborations that often rely heavily on informatics to succeed. The event aimed for new targets for better coordination to emerge, and to forge new collaborations into how cyberinfrastructure can enable scientific culture change.

The Workshop home page on the wiki provides the best starting point to learn more about the objectives and ideas going into the event, and the various documents and other products resulting from it.

CollabIT wiki for synthesis centers

After the 2011 Workshop the wiki was designated to become a place for documentation of experiences with and technologies for cyberinfrastructure development for enabling science collaborations, especially in the participating synthesis centers. Since this meeting, NSF provided funding for continued collaboration between the various Bio centers including monthly conference calls and yearly meetings, which are documented on this wiki.
