Turning Big Data to Knowledge NIH BD2K-LINCS
A discussion of the NIH BD2K initiative and how it might advance the practice
of Toxicology and Risk Assessment
The fields of toxicology, pharmacology and risk assessment are undergoing a
revolution in the use of pathway-based approaches to evaluate the biological
effects of chemicals. These fields would benefit from accessible tools that
make big data convenient and intuitive to integrate, analyze, query and
visualize. The aim of this ancillary meeting is to reach out to toxicological
scientists and introduce them to the NIH big data programs. A panel of
researchers will provide short overviews of the BD2K and LINCS initiative and
thoughts on how big data can be leveraged for protection of people and the
environment.
