Collaborators through NUCATS
Navigators
These personal research managers can assist you with finding a collaboration at any stage of the biomedical research pipeline
Team Science Resources
These resources are designed to enhance collaboration across the entire research endeavor. Team organization capitalizes on individual strengths to make the whole study more effective and efficient.
Collaborators at Northwestern
Northwestern Scholars
A searchable database of expertise across all disciplines at Northwestern University, allowing you to explore the profiles, publications, and grant data of thousands of scholars within Northwestern
LatticeGrid
LatticeGrid is an open source publications/collaboration assessment tool. The Feinberg version of this tool leverages data from the FSM Faculty Database, PubMed, eIRB and award databases. LatticeGrid lets you see who has co-authored with whom, who has published on research similar to yours, and who has what funding. It integrates and visualizes this data around organizational constructs such as centers and departments to build models of collaboration patterns.
FSM Faculty Profiles
If you are looking for a collaborator in the medical school, you can search the FSM faculty profiles.
Collaborators at Other Institutions
DIRECT
Discovery of potential collaborators is a priority of the Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) Consortium. At the new DIRECT site, you can search multiple institutions simultaneously and then easily explore the results at each institution on their individual sites.
BioMedExperts
A new online community that connects biomedical researchers to each other. It displays and analyzes the networks of investigators' co-authors.
CTSAcentral.org/CollaborationOpportunities
A resource to learn about new collaboration opportunities and an opportunity to submit requests for new collaborators. Jim Bray at the NUCATS Institute will be happy to help investigators navigate through this tool.
