Description
The primary goal of the Data Interoperability Working Group (WG) is to shorten the time for researchers to make discoveries through analysis of ADSP data. To achieve this goal, the WG supports ADSP efforts to produce high-quality, well-documented data that is interoperable across the ADSP data landscape and with external AD/ADRD resources and repositories. The Data Interoperability WG serves as an intermediary between data sources and users. It receives updates about ADSP data generation and curation efforts, and it provides feedback and support to the entities managing ADSP data production, QC, and release. The WG identifies issues, makes recommendations, and supports prioritization of efforts to shorten the time between biospecimen submission and data analysis-driven discovery. The Data Interoperability WG develops and/or endorses data standards for consideration by the ADSP Steering Committee and NIA Program leadership.
