About HuBMAP HIVE Tools Component at Carnegie Mellon University

Project Mission: To develop, extend & collect comprehensive, flexible, and fair computational tools  for the analysis and integration of data across the Tissue Mapping Components (TMCs) and HIVE (HuBMAP Integration, Visualization & Engagement). View our project page here.

About the HuBMAP Consortium: Based upon new imaging and biomolecular sequencing technologies, multiple national and international efforts are underway to more comprehensively understand human cells. The Human BioMolecular Atlas Program (HuBMAP) is a consortium composed of diverse research teams funded by the National Institutes of Health (https://commonfund.nih.gov/HuBMAP). The overall goals of the NIH Common Fund HuBMAP are to Accelerate development of the next generation of tools and techniques for constructing high-resolution spatial tissue maps that quantify multiple types of biomolecule

1. Accelerate development of the next generation of tools and techniques for constructing high-resolution spatial tissue maps that quantify multiple types of biomolecules

2. Generate foundational 3D tissue maps using validated high-content, high-throughput imaging and omics assays

3. Establish an open data platform that will develop novel approaches to integrating, visualizing, and modeling imaging and omics data to build multidimensional maps, and making data rapidly findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable by the global research community

4. Coordinate and collaborate with other funding agencies, programs, and the biomedical research community to build the architecture and tools for mapping the human body with cellular resolution; and

5. Support projects that demonstrate the value of the resources developed by the program to study individual variation and tissue changes across the lifespan and the health-disease continuum.
