About EKP
Expertise Knowledge Platform (EKP) links Children's Hospital of Philadelphia's (CHOP) employee database with internal and external data sources, such as eSPA, NIH RePORTER and PubMed, to establish an up-to-date database of CHOP's research expertise.
Developed in a joint effort between the Tsui Laboratory and Innovation Ecosystem to increase collaboration and fully utilize in-house resources at CHOP, this novel application utilizes natural language processing to integrate large public and proprietary databases into a bespoke search engine that is updated daily. EKP search results can be managed and refined using EKP's user interface, or be downloaded to Excel.
CHOP Research Institute, National Science Foundation (NSF) Innovation Corps, and NSF Rapid Response Research funding supported development of the EKP.
