Our Mission: Collaborating with our partners to achieve a secure, easy-to-use, technical and social infrastructure for solving large-scale public health problems. Creating an intuitive and powerful user experience. Developing an inexpensive and lightweight data and computational grid infrastructure. Developing robust and intuitive standards-based grid services. Facilitating national health IT integration efforts.
-- Our goal is to research and simplify grid technologies for use within public health practice. Core principles include: Long-Term Sustainability; Low Barrier to Entry (Technically, Financially & Socially); 100% Standards-Based; Reuseability; Collaboration; Open Source; Best Practices; Distributed; Federated; and a Bottom-Up Approach
