Workshop on Ontologies of Cellular Networks
General Information
The National Center for Biomedical Ontology will host a two-day workshop focused on ontologies of cellular networks.
Goals
The goals of this workshop are:
- 1. to provide an introduction to the basic tools and methods of ontology
- 2. to foster networking of, and enhanced coordination between, those groups already working on ontologies of cellular networks
- 3. to identify problems which must be solved if ontology methods are to be extended to represent biological mechanisms in greater detail
- 4. to promote further ontology development in this area with the goal of accelerating our ability to understand basic biological phenomena and to leverage experimental data
