1. VIVO Update and Many Flavors of Search Mike Conlon University of Florida

2. Since February VIVO version 1.3 completed – search, user accounts, science map, QR codes, patents, interface Spreadsheet upload, Google Refine, Harvester Cross site search, VIVO searchlight, Direct2Experts Cooperative projects – Harvard, Northwestern, Rochester, OHSU Mini grants to Pittsburgh, Stonybrook, Duke, Indiana, Weill, ORCID Adoptions at APA, USDA, 50 US Schools. Tests at NIH Mexico, Costa Rica, Puerto Rico, India, Australia, China, UK, Netherlands, Brazil Thomson-Reuters, Elsevier, Microsoft Research OpenPhacts, Federal Demonstration Partnership, Community of Science Workshop, Hackathon, Implementation Fest, Conference

3. What is VIVO? VIVO is open source, community maintained software tools for research discovery and networking VIVO is open standards and open linked data regarding science – people, papers/products, funding, events, resources, projects, data, concepts – and the relationships between them VIVO is a world community of collaborators – scientists, implementers, developers

4. Tools, Data and Community

5. Providing Data

6. Tools, Data and Community VIVO Systems

9. Tools, Data and Community Linked Open Data in a common format, regardless of the system providing data

10. Research Discovery and Networking Tools VIVO search – research discovery and networking Duke, Florida, DERI – web site plug-ins for reuse of VIVO data UCSF – find investigators “like me” across the network Harvard – visualize publication patterns Northwestern – C-IKnow Recommender Pittsburgh – Digital Vita – produce vita and biosketches VIVO Search Light – find experts related to any page on the world wide web Direct2Experts – get counts of researchers matching criteria and link to them Community of Science – use linked open data for faculty interests, match to opportunities Federal Researcher Profile System – avoid duplication of entry, simplify administration OpenPhacts (EU) – link profiles to concepts, provide provenance for assertions, identity management NRN visualization – show data sources and their inventory of data

16. CTSA Consortium Adoption of Linked Open Data for Research Discovery and Networking Research NetworkingNumber of CTSAs Linked Open data systems (VIVO+Profiles+Loki) (see note 1) 14 Elsevier SciVal Experts (see note 2)9 Non Linked Open Data System (see note 3)20 No system (see note 4)17 Notes 1.Nine other CTSAs are evaluating either VIVO or Profiles 2.Elsevier has said they can provide linked open data – either directly, or through a VIVO add- on. Northwestern will implement a VIVO add-on for their SciVal system as a model for others 3.Many CTSAs has researcher directories and/or researcher networking systems. Some – Pittsburgh Digital Vita, Iowa Loki, Stanford CAP – may be retrofitted to provide open linked data. Others may provide a VIVO or Profiles add-on 4.Forty CTSAs continue to use WebCamp. A WebCamp to VIVO connector could be written to provide linked open data for these CTSA investigators

17. Barriers to Adoption Cost/Commitment – Time and Effort – Available data – Institution-wide implementation beyond CTSA mission? Benefits – Emerging tools will be compelling? – Are tools for faculty or administration? – Cross site search?

18. Addressing the Barriers VIVO, Profiles and Elsevier, all provide rapid start- up. Commercial support available for each Sites can add-on to their existing systems to provide linked open data (eg Loki) Sites can “pipe” data from their existing systems to a linked open data system Focus on CTSA level implementation Additional communication consortium wide More tools needed for investigators Faceted cross site search is coming
