The National Center for Biomedical Ontology will hold an Introduction and Application of Bio-Ontologies tutorial as part of its series of training and dissemination events.
- Date: Tutorial: March 15, 2012
- Organization: Barry Smith (NCBO / Buffalo), Trish Whetzel (NCBO / Stanford University), and Nigam Shah (NCBO / Stanford University)
- Registration: Please write to Barry Smith
- Audience: Some background in bioinformatics or medical informatics is required. No knowledge of ontology is presupposed.
Agenda:
- 1:00pm What is an ontology and what is it useful for? (Barry Smith). This section will provide an introduction to biomedical ontology with a focus on the conditions for successful development and application of ontologies.
- 2:30pm NCBO Web Services and Development of Semantic Applications: Overview presentation of NCBO Web services and how they are being incorporated into software applications (Trish Whetzel)
- Introduction to REST Web services

- We will review the use of NCBO components to create an annotation workflow (specifically using the Annotator and Lexicon Builder components). We will then discuss the applications of this workflow to 9.5 million clinical documents--from the electronic health records of approximately one million adult patients from the STRIDE Clinical Data Warehouse, part of Stanford's CTSA Informatics platform--to identify statistically significant patterns of drug use and to conduct drug safety surveillance.
- For the patterns of drug use, we validate the usage patterns learned from the data against FDA-approved indications as well as external sources of known off-label use such as Medi-Span. For drug safety surveillance, we show that drug–disease co-occurrences and the temporal ordering of drugs and disease mentions in clinical notes can be examined for statistical enrichment and used to detect potential adverse events.
