Next Step– California Must Have a State-Wide
Experimental Optical Network• The Institutes are Creating a Joint Plan– Led by Cal-(IT)2 & CITRIS
– Involving QB3 and CNSI
• Leveraging Today’s CENIC Investment– Provides California Internet Connectivity–K-12 and Universities
• Necessary for Data-Intensive Science– Widely Available to Many Disciplines
• California is Not the Leader Today!
NIH Has Funded the First National-Scale Data Repository for Brain Images
National Partnership for Advanced Computational Infrastructure
Biomedical Informatics Research Network
(BIRN)NIH Plans to Expand
to Other Organs and Many Laboratories
UCSD is IT and Telecomm Integration Center
New BIRN Proposal Led by UCI and UCSD
Focus on Schizophrenia
