Workshop on Ontologies of Cellular Networks

To ensure highly interactive and productive sessions, the number of workshop participants will be limited. If you are interested in participating, please contact: Barry Smith

The Workshop on Ontologies of Cellular Networks is funded by the United States National Institutes of Health (NIH) through the NIH Roadmap for Medical Research, Grant 1 U54 HG004028. Information on the National Centers for Biomedical Computing can be found at [1].

Goals

The National Center for Biomedical Ontology will host a two-day workshop focused on ontologies of cellular networks.

The goals of this workshop are:

  • 1. to provide an introduction to the basic tools and methods of ontology
  • 2. to foster networking of, and enhanced coordination between, those groups already working on ontologies of cellular networks
  • 3. to identify problems which must be solved if ontology methods are to be extended to represent biological mechanisms in greater detail
  • 4. to promote further ontology development in this area with the goal of accelerating our ability to understand basic biological phenomena and to leverage experimental data
