IDO Kick-Off Meeting
Infectious Disease Ontology Kick-off Workshop and Public Meeting at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratories
The Infectious Disease Ontology Workshop and Meeting (see link below under "Past Meetings") were intended to serve as both a training workshop for participants and a forum through which to establish a community for development, maintenance, and use of the Infectious Disease Ontology (IDO). The workshop and meeting were supported by the Burroughs Wellcome Fund.
