Latest revision as of 09:09, 6 January 2009

This workshop will be held in conjunction with the Annual Meeting of the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology (SICB) in Boston, MA on January 5, 2009. It is cosponsored by the National Evolutionary Synthesis Center (NESCent) and the National Center for Biomedical Ontologies (NCBO).

Organizers Paula Mabee, Barry Smith, Todd Vision, Monte Westerfield.

Goals The workshop is focused on the application of ontologies to studies in comparative biology, with a particular emphasis on morphological and behavioral phenotypes. The goal is to introduce what ontologies are, how they are built, what makes an ontology useful, how ontologies can help researchers collaborate across disciplines, and to highlight several applications of this approach to comparative biology.

Registration Registration is open to attendees of the SICB 2009 conference at no additional cost.
