Drupal as Research Tool

jkealy — Tue, 01 Apr 2014 00:08:50 +0000

The web was originally conceived and developed to meet the demand for automatic information-sharing between scientists in universities and institutes around the world.

Drupal is a both a low priced and powerful tool for collaboration via the world wide web. Due to both of these factors it is becoming increasingly popular with the research community.

At UCSF we use Drupal for many research related purposes.

How Drupal is Bringing Value to Academia Research

Drupal is becoming a powerful research tool that relieves faculty and researchers from working on creating and managing databases and user interface tools and allows them to focus on actual research topics. We will demo how tools built with Drupal support research, scholarship, data management and more.

Join other researchers, lab managers, and technicians to find out how Drupal provided an easy and inexpensive solution for three research projects.

Drupal was used to

   • create data structures intuitively without coding SQL
   • import or enter data & metadata via a single web interface
   • display data in various formats & visualizations
   • distribute data for others to use

Securities Litigation Analytics

The project collects, analyzes and presents in a visual form trends in Class Action Lawsuits.

Linguistic Atlas Projects

The Linguistic Atlas Projects site is a drupal instance being leveraged as a nexus for LAP projects and tools--like the LAP commons Drupal site that is a place for researchers to upload presentations, publication citations, pedagogical materials, and other innovative uses of LAP data.
