National Center for Biomedical Ontology BIRN Workshop to be held Feb 28-Mar 1, 2006 at Stanford.

  • The NCBiO will hold a space-limited workshop for the BIRN Ontology Task Force
  • This workshop will focus on the specific needs of BIRN to address
    • biomedical ontology development
    • building and extending ontologies
    • BIRN ontology and mediation tools
    • Protege as an additional ontology tool
    • BIRN-specific applications

BIRN Ontology "Boot Camp" to be held Jan 26-27, 2006 at the UCSD BIRN-CC, La Jolla, CA.

  • All BIRN working meeting to move forward in marking-up database tables with concept IDs
  • At this get-together, a small group of dedicated BIRN folks will be working on the practical details of "marking-up" BIRN databases to provide information (e.g., concept IDs in data tables) that ultimately will let the automated search systems (e.g., the Mediator) know what is in that table and allow future queries.
  • We will be building on this infrastructure for more complicated queries as we move forward.
  • Anyone with an interest is welcome to attend this working meeting, and if you would like more information, please email fennema@ucsd.edu.
  • Current mBIRN participants:
    • Burak Ozyurt - representing IT and HID domains
    • Christine Fennema-Notestine - representing cognitive, anatomical, and MRI domains.
