Title of Collaborative Activity:

Big Data to Knowledge (BD2K)

Description of Collaborative Activity:

The Big Data to Knowledge (BD2K) program aims to facilitate broad use of biomedical big data, develop and disseminate analysis methods and software, enhance training for disciplines relevant for large-scale data analysis, and establish centers of excellence for biomedical big data. BD2K had held discussions with other HHS agencies who have shared interests in Big Data. In FY16, BD2K participated in a joint funding opportunity with the National Science Foundation (NSF) to support collaborations between biomedical researchers and data scientists on Quantiative Approaches to Biomedical Big Data (QuBBD).
