INTRODUCTION & AIMS

• What it is:

• a catalogue of summary information about scientific knowledge and concrete resources available in DC-THERA
• examples: bio-materials, protocols, publications, people, data sets, tools

• What it is not:

• a data repository, nor a specific bio-database

The idea is to collect summaries about existing resources, to connect existing knowledge within the directory and to provide pointers to more specific web resources.

Notes:

With more than 70 partners and third parties and 300 persons participating in the DC-THERA NoE, the DC-THERA Directory is designed to be a central reference point for research knowledge inside the network. Knowledge inside the Directory is managed in a way that makes it easily inter-operable with external resources which are annotated in a standard way, namely based on ontologies and controlled vocabulary terms.
