Waar ga je werken?

The imaging, flow cytometry, and omics (genomics, proteomics, metabolomics) Core Facilites (CF) of the Amsterdam UMC are working together to expand their team of data & compute experts to facilitate the storage, processing, integration and sharing of scientific research data to enable data integration for multi omics and AI based research. FAIR and AVG compliant data services and High-Performance Computing (HPC) resources are provided to allow integration all CF data enabling pipelines and developing harmonized FAIR data policies for the Amsterdam UMC life scientists. Our services and resources serve as a solid foundation to provide well defined and connected imaging & omics data sets for research and to provide access to vast amounts of data for AI-driven research 

The goals of this project include the 1) Harmonized FAIR data management of the CFs for data integration, standardization, and annotation; 2) Creation of a data sharing infrastructure and pipelines to enable controlled access to data generated by the Amsterdam UMC CFs; 3) Enable the combination of datasets from different CFs for data analysis and AI modelling; and 4) Provide an integrated data management and computing resource to all CF users to establish & secure the knowledge including scripts, software, and data analysis pipelines. Integrating data from imaging, flow cytometry, and omics core facilities will catalyze innovations with cost efficient services for researchers and enhance the visibility of Amsterdam UMC in the Dutch and European research infrastructure landscape.
