National Metabolomics Data Repository (NMDR) (U2C)

archived

This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) addresses the need for a robust National Metabolomics Data Repository to store, and make publicly available, raw and processed metabolomic data generated by large NIH programs, individual research grants, and other biomedical research groups. Data, associated metadata, and the essential tools critical for accessing the key information will be housed in a cloud computing environment accessible for searching and reanalysis by the biomedical research community. The Metabolomics Data Repository and Coordination Center (DRCC), created in Stage I of the Common Fund Metabolomics Program, has begun to address this need. In the transition to a National Metabolomics Data Repository, the successful applicant is expected to continue and enhance the current technical capabilities of the Data Repository and create a governance structure that engages the wider metabolomics community to guide the repositorys efforts toward continual technical improvement and expansion and policy development for data deposition, access, and citation.
