Presentation Transcript

  1. Blake & Pratt’s ‘Collaborative Information Synthesis’ John MacMullen SILS Bioinformatics Journal Club Spring 2003 Blake, Catherine & Pratt, Wanda (2002). Collaborative information synthesis. In Proceedings of the 65th Annual Meeting of the American Society for Information Science & Technology (ASIS&T), pp. 44-56.

  2. What is Meta-Analysis? • Team approach to research on research • Multiple studies examining similar factors are normalized and pooled • Used in medicine, public health, epidemiology, etc. • Meta-analysis is collaborative information synthesis SILS Bioinformatics Journal Club

  3. Information Synthesis • Define research question • Search literature • Assess results • Combine results • Place findings in context refine search SILS Bioinformatics Journal Club

  4. Research Goals • Help medical researchers use the literature faster and more completely than current manual methods • Reduce information overload • Develop automated methods for synthesizing the medical literature SILS Bioinformatics Journal Club

  5. Research Components • Information needs, seeking strategies, and collaborative behaviors of medical and public health researchers • Collaboration strategies • Review of published meta-analyses shows most are a collaboration with multiple authors • Collaborative information synthesis model • METIS system architecture SILS Bioinformatics Journal Club

  6. METIS Architecture SILS Bioinformatics Journal Club

  7. Use Case Example SILS Bioinformatics Journal Club

  8. Use Case Example SILS Bioinformatics Journal Club

  9. Relevance to IV Lab Research • Scholarly electronic collaboration (ScholOnto) • (Semi-) Automatic extraction of text and quantitative data from documents • Synthesis of biomedical data and information SILS Bioinformatics Journal Club
