I am Louise Miren Posio, a student of Miriam College, taking up Business Administration major in marketing. I join this site to enhance my knowledge in gathering infomartion through searching websites, by collaborating with my groups, getting ideas from this wetpaint.com. In gathering information that are facts will help my understanding or familiarity in marketing. I think this is related to my course, for example marketing research. I am thankful that I am a part of this group.
The NBN’s utility is maximized with a well-designed and powerful information system, and biospecimens will prove more useful for research when accompanied by annotation of relevant clinical data. By design, not only the quality but also the accessibility of the biospecimens and associated data must be considered to be of the utmost importance, as acquiring data without a way to use or share the information is pointless.1 The Tissue Access Working Group and the NBN Design Team recognized that the development of the NBN information system as an openaccess tool using scalable and extensible architecture is at the core of its efficient functioning and serves to buttress the NBN’s purpose of supporting the integration and exchange of information for cancer research. Identifying and implementing the best information technology (IT) architecture for the NBN will be a critical success factor and must be a priority in the NBN planning and budgeting process. This module reviews the architectural requirements for an informatics superstructure that supports searchable Internet-based approaches to an open-access but data-secure system; the collection and dissemination of biospecimens and data; reliable information exchange between NBN components and existing clinical information systems, subject to appropriate standards; data mining tools to facilitate scientific discovery; and management of the business functions of the NBN. This system must include an optimal design for the protection of patient confidentiality that allows patients reasonable access to aggregated research results.

The National Biospecimen Network (NBN) will require an information system to track biospecimens, support the collection and dissemination of key clinical and biological data associated with them, provide analytical capabilities for genomic and proteomic based research, and manage information needed for NBN administration. This module outlines the requirements and architectural issues for the NBN information system, and proposes approaches to establishing such a system using a combination of new development and adaptation of existing systems.
4.1 Introduction
The field of biomedical informatics encompasses the full range of technologies needed for clinical, biomedical, and genetics research, including applications for computational biology such as the study of probabilistic methods for gene analysis or techniques for studying protein folding. This module focuses on the particular requirements of the NBN for a multidimensional system that can capture and manage data serving a broad range of applications that begins at the bedside and progresses through the genetics laboratory.

*Boundary- that which indicates or fixes a limit or extent, or marks a bound, as of a territory; a bounding or separating line; a real or imaginary limit. *Constraints-the threat or use of force to prevent, restrict, or dictate the action or thought of others. *Interrelations-mutual or reciprocal relation; correlation or relatedness. * Interfaces-in a system, a shared boundary, i.e., the boundary between two subsystems or two devices. A shared boundary between two functional units, defined by specific attributes, such as functional characteristics, common physical interconnection characteristics, and signal characteristics. A point of communication between two or more processes, persons, or other physical entities. A point of interconnection between user terminal equipment and commercial communications facilities. To interconnect two or more entities at a common point or shared boundary.
