Abstract :
Within the context of the EU design study developmental gene expression map, we identify a set of challenges when facilitating collaborative research on early human embryo development. These challenges bring forth requirements, for which we have identified solutions and technology. We summarise our solutions and demonstrate how they integrate to form an e-infrastructure to support collaborative research in this area of developmental biology.
