RAISE: Big Data Tools: From Bioinformatics To Materials Genomics


This is a project funded by NSF (1743418). Materials Genome (MG) Initiative for Global Competitiveness, inspired by the Human Genome Project, aims to accelerate the discovery, development, manufacturing, and deployment of new and advanced materials. It is generally accepted that the goals of the Materials Genome Initiative can only be successful if the efforts are data-driven. This project recognizes the unique potential of tools developed to process and analyze big data from Biological Genome (BG) to be applied to the Materials Science domain. Specifically, we translate approaches and tools first developed in the context of biological genomics to materials genomics where the combinatorial possibilities of the domain's fundamental "genomic" building blocks approach infinity.Start Date: August 1, 2017
