[Myexperiment-discuss] MyExperiment and IBVRE

[Matthew Mascord]

Dear MyExperiment team,

Are you interested in meeting the needs of the computational biology 
community with MyExperiment?

We have just completed a VRE project, Integrative Biology VRE - an 
off-shoot of the Integrative Biology project - to build a web-based in 
silico experiment repository for a geographically distributed but 
closely collaborating group of heart modellers, who conduct simulation 
studies of heart behaviour using the Memfem nonlinear finite element 
simulation tool  
<http://virtualheart.bmen.tulane.edu/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/LabSoftware>.

I think our user community would be very interested in your concept, 
especially in introducing ideas such as tagging and the ability to 
associate experiments with other media such as videos of heart behaviour 
and related publications.

The website <http://www.vre.ox.ac.uk/ibvre> has details of our work 
(including our requirements gathering work), and we have recently 
released the code under a BSD licence on SourceForge (unix name ibvre).  
The final report is to be published very shortly on the website.

If there is any scope for incorporating our work into MyExperiment in 
some way, I would be very happy to put you into contact with the end 
users we have been working with.

Best Wishes,

Matthew
