What is telescience? Is it feasible to transfer academic information with the help of telematics to educate and teach young scientists over large distances? The term telescience has so far not been defined but covers a variety of possibilities, which could be successfully implemented worldwide. This article gives examples and highlights the feasibility analysis of telescience.
We have carried out feasibility analyses for neurological functional diagnostics, an epidemiological cross-sectional study as well as a laboratory study for detection of thrombocyte function during dengue fever with the help of telemedicine. The basis for all these projects was a telemedical transcontinental cooperation over a distance of 12,000 km.
All performed studies demonstrated the feasibility. With the help of telematics the laboratory techniques, planning, conduction and interpretation of results as well as publication skills can be transferred.
Telescience is feasible. Our studies showed that telescience is a very promising option to transfer knowledge, which will help to enable professional expertise to be transferred directly to the region/country without a brain drain. All too often young motivated scientists are enticed to move to well-known institutions, which involves the danger of a brain drain. Brain drain can be avoided in favor of local implementation of scientific projects. Our results illustrate that it is feasible to educate and guide scientists with the help of telematics infrastructures.
什么是远程科学？借助远程信息技术在远距离范围内教育和培养年轻科学家并传递学术信息是否可行？远程科学这一术语至今尚未有明确的定义，但涵盖了多种有可能在全球成功实施的可能性。本文给出了示例并强调了远程科学的可行性分析。
我们借助远程医疗对神经功能诊断、一项流行病学横断面研究以及一项关于登革热期间血小板功能检测的实验室研究进行了可行性分析。所有这些项目的基础都是跨越12000公里的远程医疗跨大陆合作。
所有开展的研究都证明了其可行性。借助远程信息技术，可以传递实验室技术、结果的规划、实施与解读以及发表技巧。
远程科学是可行的。我们的研究表明，远程科学是传递知识的一个非常有前景的选择，这将有助于使专业知识直接传递到相关地区/国家，而不会导致人才流失。往往有积极性的年轻科学家会被吸引到知名机构，这存在人才流失的风险。可以避免人才流失，转而支持在当地实施科研项目。我们的结果表明，借助远程信息技术基础设施来教育和指导科学家是可行的。
