NBSTRN Next Generation Meeting June 16-17, 2011

June 16-17, 2011

Washington, DC                                    

            

As we are moving from the development phase to the implementation phase of the NBSTRN, the overall goal of the Next Generation Meeting was to get feedback on:

  • the central functions of the network and coordinating center
  • identify the major issues we need to focus on over the next 2.5 years
  • and ensure that we’re developing the appropriate resources to meet the needs of the research community  

The NBSTRN Next Generation Meeting was a great success! Workgroup breakout sessions helped to define workgroup priorities for the next 2 years of the contract. The summaries for these sessions are posted on the NBSTRN Wiki.
