Sustaining e-Science in the interplay between infrastructures and scientific activity: the case of SwissBioGrid
The experience of the SwissBioGrid project points to several wider issues in e-Research that we want to bring to the fore: The establishment of national e-infrastructures is especially difficult where research funding is decentralised; applying Grid technologies in disciplines such as biology as it...

| description | The experience of the SwissBioGrid project points to several wider issues in e-Research that we want to bring to the fore: The establishment of national e-infrastructures is especially difficult where research funding is decentralised; applying Grid technologies in disciplines such as biology as it still not used to "Big Science" to the extent that particle physics is and individual investigators often build their own local computational infrastructures; the life sciences also generate and make use of a broad diversity of very large data repositories, while infrastructure to sustain them takes second place to basis science. |
