This work is the first step in interconnecting the countrywide e-INIS data store which, when complete, will have over one petabyte of storage capacity. The e-INIS project is collaboration between key national infrastructure providers and institutional participants: Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies, The Irish Centre for High-End Computing, HEAnet, Grid-Ireland, National University of Ireland Galway, University College Cork, Trinity College Dublin and National University of Ireland Maynooth. In addition, the store will be connected to European partners through the EU-funded NEMO project. In this role, the store will be used to manage data for the 13 participating international institutions.
The BCRI wish to thank the UCC Computer Centre for their assistance in making the link operational.
Notes:
1) HEAnet provides high quality Internet
Services to Irish Universities, Institutes of Technology and to the research
and educational community. It plays an essential role in facilitating leading
edge research involving national and international collaborations between Irish
researchers and students and their colleagues across the globe.
2)
E-INIS = e-Irish National Infra-Structure
3) NEMO is an EU FP7
funded project that will be the largest multicentered European study of
neonatal seizures and their treatment. The project addresses the FP7 Health
call ‘Adapting off-patent medicines to the specific needs of paediatric
populations’ by investigating the safety and efficacy of bumetanide for the
treatment of seizures in babies. Bumetanide is included in the European
Medicines Agency (EMEA) revised priority list for studies into off-patent
paediatric medicinal products.
It
is coordinated in UCC by Dr Geraldine Boylan, School of Medicine
Nemo
is derived from - Treatment of NEonatal seizures with Medication Off-patent:
Evaluation of efficacy and safety of Bumetanide.
