Livrables

Documents, reports (3)

A plan for dissemination, exploitation and communication

A projected plan of dissemination activities to be held during the lifetime of the project will be drawn up.

A Scientific and Management Plan

Following a detailed internal assessment of the current infrastructure and genomic research at the UM the ERA Chair will develop a Scientific and Management plan that includes a strategy for the effective implementation of the BT. It is expected that the ERA Chair will include the relevant major -Omic and HTS projects currently underway at UM as described in Section 1.2.2.

Bioinformatics requirements (hardware and software) document

The ERA-Chair will set up one-to-one meetings with molecular biology research groups and identify local bioinformatics needs, and define computer storage and processing requirements of each project. The outcome of these meetings will generate the information required to satisfy this deliverable.

Websites, patent fillings, videos etc. (1)

Set-up of project website

A dedicated project website will be set up under the UM domain. This website will be maintained during the lifetime of the project.

Data Management Plan (1)

A Data Management Plan

A data management plan for bioinformatics projects at UM will be built and updated throughout the lifetime of the project.
