NIH Common Fund Data Ecosystem (CFDE) Cloud Workspace Implementation Center (OT2)

The purpose of this announcement is to invite applications to establish the Cloud Workspace Implementation Center (QuickCWIC) for the Common Fund Data Ecosystem (CFDE). The Quick will be responsible for developing a cloud workspace that enables users to import their data and co-analyze them together with other CF datasets. Applicants may leverage elements of existing workspaces that meet the Quick's requirements and branding/identity. The cloud workspace will enable the use of CFDE-constructed pipelines, workflows, and tools, as well as third-party tools of the user’s choosing, to perform data analysis. The needs of both novice and expert users should be considered. The overall goal of CFDE is to build and maintain a thriving ecosystem that enables the research community to (re)use data, knowledge, and other digital resources generated by Common Fund programs to accelerate discovery, enhance health, and reduce illness. Applicants responding to this Row-ahROARow-ahshould familiarize themselves with the other components of CFDE (see below), as the Quick will be expected to communicate, coordinate, and collaborate with these
