VPH-Share (2011-2015)

VPH-Share develops the organisational fabric and integrates optimized services to (1) expose and share data and knowledge, (2) jointly develop multiscale models for the composition of new VPH workflows, (3) facilitate collaboration within the VPH community. Four flagship workflows (representing @neurIST, euHeart, VPHOP and Virolab projects) provide existing data, tools and models, engaging with the services developed by VPH-Share to drive the development of the infostructure and pilot its applications. Data sources are usually clinical data from individual patients – medical images and/or biomedical signals – sometimes with population information. Operations range from secure access and storage through annotation, data inference and assimilation, to complex image processing and physics-based mathematical modelling, to data reduction and representation.
