BIRN represents the first attempt to develop a "protocol" for collaborative research among neuroscientists and medical scientists.
BIRN leverages a number of ongoing studies in the hope of improving both biomedical insight and statistical accuracy.
BIRN will develop useful ways of sharing data rapidly over the Internet, with appropriate controls over data and patient confidentiality and privacy, under model agreements among the many scientists involved.
The Biomedical Informatics Research Network (BIRN) is a National Institutes of Health initiative that fosters distributed collaborations in biomedical science by utilizing information technology innovations.
Currently the BIRN involves a consortium of 19 universities and 26 research groups that participate in one or more of three test bed projects centered around brain imaging of human neurological disorders and associated animal models.
