New Website Reduces Redundant Medical Research to Speed the Discovery of Cures

August 22, 2011 By Leave a Comment


San Mateo, CA (PRWEB) September 17, 2007

Innolyst, Inc., a leading provider of collaboration tools for not-for-profit medical research, today announced the launch of its ResearchCrossroads website at http://www.researchcrossroads.com. Recognizing a need to reduce redundant efforts in the nearly $ 200 billion of public research performed in the U.S. over the past 15 years by 125,000 researchers at 10,000 organizations, Innolyst created ResearchCrossroads to consolidate medical research from both government and private foundations and combine this with grants and funding opportunities, with an aim of speeding the discovery of treatments.

?ResearchCrossroads connects academia, research foundations and the pharmaceutical industry in ways never before possible,? says Kyle Brown, Founder of ResearchCrossroads. ?Often, scientists are conducting research that may be useful in other diseases, but there is little information sharing today. For example, many neurological disease foundations are struggling with how to deliver treatments effectively to the brain. ResearchCrossroads connects those scientists and organizations working on similar research, speeding discovery.?

Since the passing of the Freedom of Information Act, the United States Government has been required to make federally funded research data available to the public. However, the format and accessibility of this information has made it nearly impossible to understand who is working on what research and how much is being funded. Now ResearchCrossroads consolidates data from government sources, including: NIH CRISP, NIH funding data, ClinicalTrials.gov and Grants.gov, and combines this information with grants and funding opportunities from private research foundations to present a comprehensive view of public medical research.

?We have over 125,000 researcher profiles, one million grants, and funding history for more than 10,000 organizations. This social network of scientists can annotate their research, providing more complete and accurate data so funding agencies can identify research partners,? continues Brown. ?And foundations can leverage the outstanding work conducted by other organizations, making their valuable research dollars go farther.?

The consolidated information in ResearchCrossroads is used to create organization and researcher profiles. These intelligent profiles enable researchers, foundations and for-profit companies to quickly identify collaborators in specific disease areas, reducing redundant research and speeding the discovery of potential treatments. Researchers can update their profiles with biographies, publications, and photos to create a social network of researchers and organizations with similar research interests.

ResearchCrossroads is free to the public and foundations. Subscriptions to the data and analytical reporting are available to for-profit companies, highlighting not-for-profit research to potential commercial partners.

About ResearchCrossroads:

ResearchCrossroads manages the world?s not-for-profit research. By consolidating data from government sources and combining this information with grants and funding opportunities from private research foundations, ResearchCrossroads presents the most complete view of publicly funded medical research.

Gap In Perceived Pap Amongst Public Sector Workers Increases

August 22, 2011 By Leave a Comment


(PRWEB UK) 12 August 2011

Recently released research from totaljobs.com finds that seven out of ten (72%) public sector jobseekers would consider a move into the private sector in order to get a better deal on pay. This comes as the Office of National Statistics reveal that public sector pay is on average 7.8% higher than in the private sector, demonstrating a huge gap in perception amongst public sector workers.

Further outlining the current mindset of public sector jobseekers, almost half (49%) said they would look to the private sector for improved job security, and 59% for better working conditions ? factors traditionally seen as benefits of working in the public sector. The vast majority of jobseekers polled, (94%) stated that they would even consider a complete career change, suggesting that jobseekers are increasingly frustrated by the perceived poor deals offered by vacancies in the public sector.

John Salt, director, Totaljobs.com comments:

?It is clear that public sector jobseeker confidence is at an all time low, with a large section believing they are better off in the private sector. However, the sectors are difficult to compare in terms of pay, particularly in the current climate. With large numbers looking to migrate to the private sector, we must remember that jobs are out there. Our site currently houses over 1,000 postings for public sector jobs showing that it is still possible to progress well and experience the benefits traditionally associated with this sector.?

It seems that this current sentiment could quickly begin to impact on public services, with 20% of public sector jobseekers considering industrial action against the cuts while 83% think that talk of cuts is affecting morale to some degree.

John continues: ?For those looking to move to the private sector it is encouraging to see that jobseekers are keeping their options open. The good news is that the many of the skills acquired in previous roles are transferable and it seems that jobseekers are aware of this. This is an improvement on earlier this year when our research showed confidence of transferring to the private sector was low. Being more flexible is exactly right the attitude to take if jobseekers are to secure employment during difficult conditions as it will present more options.?

There also seems to be a growing resentment towards the public among the majority (82%) of those public sector workers surveyed as they believe the public doesn?t understand the full scope of the services provided. A similar proportion (82%) feel unappreciated by the public with 72% stating that antipathy towards public sector workers has risen since the public sector cuts were announced, citing government rhetoric as the main cause of this.
