Research Synopsis

Dr Kibbe is involved in the caBIG® Clinical Trial Management Systems Workspace where he is the PI of the Patient Study Calendar module software development project, the caBIG development project that has developed a syntactically and semantically harmonized interoperable patient study calendar using agile design practices. Also in caBIG, he is also a member of the caBIG Tissue Banks and Pathology Tools Workspace, the Integrative Cancer Research Workspace, the Data Sharing and Intellectual Capital Workspace, and the Architecture Cross-cutting workspace. Dr. Kibbe is the co-PI of the NIH-funded Dictyostelium Model Organism Database, dictyBase (http://dictybase.org). He was co-Investigator and director of bioinformatics for the NIH-funded Northwestern ENU Mutagenesis Center, and the NIH-funded Neuromice consortium involving the ENU centers at Northwestern, the Jackson Laboratory, and the University of Tennessee. He is a proponent of Agile software development methodologies and the Agile Unified Process Framework and the application of these to biomedical research problems. Dr. Kibbe's group has developed NOTIS, the clinical trial information management system used for all cancer trials at Northwestern and by the genotype/phenotype biorepository NUgene (http://www.nugene.org) as the source of identified information on participant in NUgene. He is also a key participant in building a computable research representation of clinical data, through his work with the Northwestern Clinical Enterprise Data Warehouse, the caBIG Clinical Annotations Engine (which is designed to build a computable representation of pathology reports from the Cerner and Epic EMR systems), and ontology efforts, including being a co-founder of the Disease Ontology (http://diseaseontology.sourceforge.net) and the semantically computable BRIDG domain analysis model that is being jointly developed by members of HL7, CDISC and caBIG to represent clinical research information and the semantics necessary to conduct clinical trials.
