Motivation

Biomarkers are the key driving force for EDRN. Dave Woolard has devised an XML format for describing biomarkers, and Christos Patriotis has used to to describe several markers.

In order to search for and display biomarkers, EKE must understand and import these files.

Proposal

  1. Add biomarker import/ingest feature to EKE that leverages the new XML biomarker format.
  2. Test display of imported biomarkers.
  3. Confirm with EDRN that necessary data is properly imported.

Implementation

  1. Update Products.EKE.utils:
    • Add parserBiomarker function
    • Add importBiomarker function
  2. Update skins:
    • Add field for biomarker XML file URL
    • Add validator for field
    • Add controller script for XML import
    • Update response page for # biomarkers imported

Deliverables

Next EKE release.
