2. Technological Progress In the past decade, technology has created the Genome and the Web In 1990, these ideas were only plans In 2000, they have already progressed from research systems to commercial products In the next decade, the revolution will actually begin and the world will be completely different!

3. Paradigm Shift Towards Dry-Lab Biology, Walter Gilbert (Jan 1991) “The new paradigm, now emerging, is that all the 'genes' will be known (in the sense of being resident in databases available electronically), and that the starting point of a biological investigation will be theoretical. An individual scientist will begin with a theoretical conjecture, only then turning to experiment to follow or test that hypothesis.... To use this flood of knowledge [the total sequence of the human and model organisms], which will pour across the computer networks of the world, biologists not only must become computer-literate, but also change their approach to the problem of understanding life.... The Coming of Informational Science Correlation of Knowledge across Sources

4. Analysis Environments I The Present -- Year 2000 Search Central Archives Locating a Generic (average) solution mining sequences from the Genome diagnosing diseases from the Clinical Trial some Problems may have point Solutions find the cystic fibrosis gene find the diabetes treatment

5. Analysis Environments II The Future -- Year 2010 Navigate Distributed Repositories Locating a Specific (situational) solution correlating sequences, genes, expressions correlating diagnoses, treatments, lifestyles most Problems have cluster Solutions find genes for Heart Disease find treatments for Arthritis

6. WCS -- a testbed for the world of 2000 community repositories before the Web in 1991, a distributed analysis environment MIBI -- a testbed for the world of 2010 concept navigation before the Interspace in 2001, a biomedical analysis environment to enable Michigan faculty and students to live in the world of the future Testbeds of the Future

35. Towards A Model Discipline 1995-1999 Interspace (Illinois, Urbana) prototype to federate concepts 2000-2004 MEDSPACE (Illinois, Chicago) testbed in clinical medicine (plan, demo) National Model for Biomedical Informatics lead news in Science on MEDLINE dry-run Best Paper at AMIA (Medical Informatics) 2001-2005 MIBI (Michigan) testbed in biomedical research

36. Michigan Interspace Gather the Information Sources Michigan Integrated Biomedical Interspace (MIBI) each (department, institute, lab) has repository Generate the Community Repositories text documents with articles and annotations specialty datatypes: databases and motifs Construct the Analysis Environment federated concept switching across sites type-dependent parsing for text/data interlinks

37. MIBI Sources Literature Journals: MEDLINE, BIOSIS, fulltext Specialty Conferences (e.g. Neuroscience) Community Newsletters, Lab Annotations Databases Sequences: GENBANK, Celera Genes and Maps from Model Organisms Expressions from Microarrays Gene Pathways, Cellular Anatomy
