Use of a satellite-assisted computer link for long-distance research collaboration.
Research collaboration between investigators located at some distance from each other is not only possible but also feasible. By using satellite-assisted computer-to-computer links, researchers across the United States and overseas work with the staff and facilities of the Cardiovascular Research and Training Center (CVRTC) in the University of Washington, Seattle. This report presents the mechanics, advantages, and results of using such an approach to collaborate with distant colleagues.
