Research Applications and Services represents the collection of research-focused applications that RIS operates or supports on behalf of external customers. Each application might be considered a service unto itself, but we attempt to provide a common framework of abstraction such that some measure of consistency is associated with all applications.

Access

RIS customers within WashU are able to receive technical support in the lifecycle of a given application, where that might include the design, architecture, construction, deployment, management of an application to serve the research mission of Washington University.
