Classification Methods for the NIST Biorepository

Ongoing
NIST has been archiving biological and environmental specimens, including marine animal and environmental samples, for over 40 years. Currently, these biospecimens are stored at cryogenic temperatures in the NIST Biorepository located at the Hollings Marine Laboratory in Charleston, SC. Various...

Data Tools for Environmental Metrology

Ongoing
A recent addition to operations in the NIST Biorepository, we seek out places where NIST scientists get bogged down by the complexity of their data. Research at NIST can generated some of the most complex data in the world, at times requiring six months or more of processing to get to the data...

METIS

Ongoing
A Metrology Exchange to Innovate in Semiconductors

NIST Materials Resource Registry

Ongoing
The MRR is a comprehensive inventory of high-level data collections, repositories, databases, tools, software, and services useful to materials research and design but located anywhere in the world. Its specialization for Materials Science is in the domain-specific metadata and vocabulary it can...

Ontologies and Interoperability in Evolutionary Comparative Analysis

Completed
Intended impact Nearly all scientists who regularly use online resources on genes, proteins and genomes make use of comparative data to advance biomedical research. For instance, researchers often make useful inferences by comparing human genes (as well as proteins, reactions, interactions, pathways...
