ResearchNet
Speculative automation layer on top of LabKit for grant compliance and dissemination.
Last updated on
Speculative direction. The data model is being built out through LabKit first - ResearchNet only makes sense if the underlying data is reliable and updated. No concrete scope yet.
2025 – Ongoing
What
- An undecided path I'm exploring to see if there's potential for more. DIAL's website has a good setup with a highly interconnected data model that's OpenAlex compliant.
- Want to automate grant compliance, reporting and dissemination and explore further uses of the lab's data and especially the relationships between data
- Hinges on the assumption that the data is reliable and updated
Why
- PIs often have to do a lot of administrative work that's keeping track of what went where
- I don't fully understand the workflow yet so I can't design for it now but there's potential. I want to deeply understand the problem first.
- You cannot have effective Agentic AI without pristine data models. I am building the full stack (website schema) myself to ensure the AI has a reliable "world model" to operate on.
Additional Info
- DIAL is the perfect dogfeeding environment for this
- If this works out I want to move it under Autana Systems and start doing a shift to AI/ML and especially workflow automations. I'm designing every layer of the stack so I don't have to worry about faulty data models that agentic AI needs to work with.
