[ome-devel] Stowers Original Data Repository

[Jason Swedlow]

Dear All-

Many of you are thinking about mechanisms for archiving and releasing original data associated with scientific publications.

Last week, the Stowers Institute announced their institutional repository for original data associated with their publications. The announcement is here:

http://www.stowers.org/media/news/jul-13-2012

And the repository itself is here:

http://srdr.stowers.org/

The Stowers ODR is based on Bio-Formats and OMERO, open source technology built by the OME Consortium (http://www.openmicroscopy.org/).  The OME Consortium is supported by grants from the Wellcome Trust and the BBSRC.

As you probably know, the JCB DataViewer (http://jcb-dataviewer.rupress.org) and ASCB CELL (http://cellimagelibrary.org) are other examples of public image repositories based on OMERO and Bio-Formats.

The OME Consortium is proud that its technology is helping make scientific data open and freely available.

Cheers,

Jason
