Leap.metamaps.cc is a partnership between SynBio LEAP and Metamaps.cc, a project of the Metamaps Open Value Network. It consists of a customized installation of the publicly available platform that resides at Metamaps.cc, that acts as a graph-based knowledge management tool for sharing, learning, and live facilitation applications internally within SynBio LEAP.
The Synthetic Biology Leadership Excellence Accelerator Program (LEAP) envisions catalyzing a next generation of leaders in biotechnology to drive the responsible development of the field. In addition to building a cadre of young professionals taking on leadership roles in the synthetic biology community, LEAP aims to create sustainable tools and mechanisms for engaging a broader range of practitioners in the societal role of biotechnology development.
Metamaps.cc is a free and open source web platform that enables individuals and communities to build and visualize their shared knowledge and unlock their collective intelligence. It is a tool to help connect people, resources and ideas with rich detail and weave those relationships into actionable insights and stories.
Publicly launched in 2012, Metamaps.cc continues to be a constantly developing work in progress. The platform is evolving for a range of applications amidst a growing network of designers, researchers, developers, practitioners, entrepreneurs, and artists.
