Participants

Subject matter experts from various teams will be on site hosting information tables to collaborate with you throughout the afternoon, including:

  • Brigham Research Education Program: The Research Education Program works closely with other groups providing education and training for the BWH research community to help promote all offerings across the continuum.
  • Brigham Digital Innovation Hub (iHub): Learn how the iHub drives more patient-centered, efficient, and safe care through use, development, evaluation, and commercialization of digital health.
  • Partners eCare Research Core (PeRC): Services that PeRC offers include: gathering Epic-related patient data for research (in the form of reports and/or data extracts), recruitment related services, and developing patient questionnaires.
  • Brigham Research Institute (BRI): BRI strives to provide a clear voice (internally and externally) for the entire BWH research community, raise the profile of research at BWH, develop mission-centric collaborations with external entities and engage the scientific community in fundraising.
  • Research Patient Data Registry (RPDR) & Biobank Portal: The Research Patient Data Registry (RPDR) is a centralized clinical data registry, or data warehouse that gathers clinical information from various Partners hospital systems. The Biobank Portal is a tool that links consented subjects from the Partners Biobank with their health care data from the electronic medical record (EMR).
  • Information Security & Privacy Office: Stop by to discuss vulnerability scanning, backup and disaster recovery, logical access and authorization, encryption of confidential data, baseline configurations and audits.
  • Partners Connected Health InnovationStencil is a platform that leverages the power of REDCap to enable remote data collection, using a secure smartphone app. Surveys created in REDCap are converted into an easy to use app that runs on Android and Apple phones. Phone notifications can be used to remind participants when to complete a survey. Data is transmitted directly into the REDCap data base providing real-time data collection.
  • ERIS RICS Office: RICS provides dedicated computing support for the research community at Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH). The RICS team helps researchers focus on science by solving their IT challenges using their deep knowledge of Research IT across the system to consult on solutions for researchers.
  • ERIS LabArchives: An electronic laboratory notebook solution for organizing and securely sharing laboratory data within your study team, department or external collaborators
  • ERIS Freezerworks: A secure, electronic sample tracking and freezer inventory management system for Partners labs and biorepositories.
  • ERIS Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap) & Survey tool: A web-based software application for electronic collection and management of research and clinical study data.
  • ERIS Consumer Technology Management (CTM): The CTM team develops the Partners endpoint computing strategy for Windows PCs and is working on the Next Enterprise Windows Solution (NEWS), Windows 10. 
  • ERIS Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM): Keeping mobile devices secure is an important security initiative. Partners has successfully enrolled over 30,000 users in MobileIron, which ensures that Partners resources, such as email, are secured on mobile devices. Stop by to see a demo and ask questions.
  • ERIS Partners Enterprise Apple Services (PEAS): Learn about Self Service, the Partners app store that provides Enterprise software and resources for Apple laptops & desktops. Launch Self Service from your Applications folder to download Office for Mac, receive the token-less VPN hotfix, and install clients for Partners services.
  • ERIS Web Hosting: ERIS provides hosting options for lab and departmental websites on both shared hosting environments like Wordpress or on a dedicated Virtual Server (VM).
  • ERIS Research Computing Core Facility: Learn about storage, backup and cost-effective consultation and technical services. Learn about how to access discounted academic software for business use.
  • ERIS Scientific Computing: Learn about the computational resources available to you. For example, ask your questions about the ERISOne Linux Cluster, the Integrated Data Environment for Analytics (IDEA) for Big Data and the newly-formed Partners R User Group.
