The Levy Library has created our first web guide devoted to online Big Data Sources and DataSets. Included in this list are many suggestions from Mount Sinai faculty and researchers. Several of the data repositories are Mount Sinai specific, such as the Mount Sinai Bone Marrow Database and the Mount Sinai Data Warehouse.
Our goal is to compile data sources that are helpful to faculty, students, and researchers, to highlight efforts at Mount Sinai to compile research data online, and to support the various data initiatives taking place at the Icahn School of Medicine .
To visit the Library’s directory of data repositories, please go to: http://libguides.mssm.edu/bigdata
If you have further suggestions about data sources to include, especially for those relevant to the scope of research at Mount Sinai, please let us know.
