The National Center for Biomedical Ontology and the University at Buffalo Department of Philosophy sponsored a two-day ontology training event, held in Buffalo, NY on 12-13 April, 2008.
The course was designed to provide a basic introduction to ontology with special reference to applications in the field of biomedical research. It provided an introductory survey of methods and an overview of current developments and best practices in ontology in the life sciences. The course was designed to be of interest to both philosophers and those with a background in medicine or biology.
