The Office of the Vice President for Research works with the Division of Information Technology to make available a website for team proposals and collaboration. Each multidisciplinary proposal will be given a virtual home. Access to the project will be made available upon request.
For example, if a team of investigators will submit a proposal and need to share files, manage calendars and meetings, send postings about specific topics, etc., there will be a single
electronic storage location made available to all members of the proposal team and their administrative staff. All members of the team will be able to see who has the most recent
version of a document, track changes made, add or remove files with ease, from anywhere in the world, opening more possibilities for more geographically diverse collaborations.
Stony Brook University provides an Internet browser-based collaboration, Web-site content management, social networking, and document management system via the Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS). This system supports Web-site authoring, and collaborative sites for groups such as research teams, committees and course-related activities.
SharePoint sites can be used for non-commercial, University-related purposes such as departmental and organizational Web sites, team work spaces for committees and research teams, student organization Web sites and personal Web sites through the My Site feature.
