COVIDium

COVIDium aggregates and catalogs over 160 databases and more than 80 software tools relevant to SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 research to facilitate discovery and retrieval of datasets and protein-protein interaction references.


Key Features:

  • Categorized Resource Classification: Organizes over 160 databases and more than 80 software tools into 11 broad categories for rapid identification of relevant resources.
  • Generic Hit-Term Filtering: Provides generic hit terms to filter database entries and narrow searches to specific topics or entities.
  • Tracker Dashboard and Neuro Resources: Includes specialized sections such as a Tracker Dashboard and Neuro Resources for targeted insights into specific COVID-19 research areas.
  • References to Datasets and Interactions: Curates references to COVID-19 datasets and protein-protein interactions to support downstream analyses.
  • Periodic Updates: Maintains the compendium through periodic updates to incorporate newly available databases and software tools.

Scientific Applications:

  • Resource Discovery: Facilitates discovery and retrieval of SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 databases and software tools for research use.
  • Data and Interaction Analysis Support: Provides curated references to datasets and protein-protein interactions to support in-depth computational and experimental analyses.
  • Targeted Domain Investigations: Enables targeted investigations into specific areas such as neurological aspects of COVID-19 and tracking-related studies via dedicated sections.

Methodology:

Categorizes over 160 databases and more than 80 software tools into 11 broad categories, implements generic hit-term filtering, curates references to COVID-19 datasets and protein-protein interactions, and applies periodic updates.
