General Information
The National Center for Biomedical Ontology will host a two-day workshop focused on the ontology of networks and pathways. The meeting will be held in Newark NJ in March 2008.
Goals
The goals of this workshop are:
- 1. to provide an introduction to the basic tools and methods of ontology
- 2. to overview existing work on the ontology of networks and pathways with a view to enhanced coordination
- 3. to foster networking among ontology developer and user groups in the field of networks and pathways
Rough Draft Agenda
Day 1
Morning
- 8.30am Registration and Continental Breakfast
Ontology of Networks and Pathways: Some Basic Ingredients
- Moderator: Peter Lyster (NIH/NIGMS)
- 9am Participant Self-Introductions
- 9.15am Barry Smith (NCBO, Buffalo): What is a Network?
- 9.45am Lindsay Cowell (Duke): The Cell Ontology
- 10.15am Coffee
- 10.45am Chris Mungall (NCBO, Berkeley): Representing Relations: The Methodology of Cross-Products
- 11.15am BioPAX/Reactome/TBD
- 12.45pm Lunch Break
Afternoon
Constructing an Ontology of Networks and Pathways
- Moderator: Alan Ruttenberg (Science Commons / Semantic Web HCLSIG)
This will be an interactive hands-on session, in which data annotation needs will be presented, on the basis of which the attempt will be made to construct the beginnings of a cellular network ontology.
Wednesday
Morning
