University at Buffalo, NY, July 24-26, 2009
Ontologies are being used in a variety of ways by researchers in
almost every life science discipline, and their use in annotation of
both clinical and experimental data is now a common technique in
integrative translational research. Principles-based ontologies are
being developed for the description of biological and biomedical
phenomena of almost every different type. To be maximally effective,
such ontologies must work well together. But as ontologies become more
commonly used, the problems involved in achieving coordination in
ontology development become ever more urgent. To address these
problems there is a need for an overarching conference which brings
together representatives of all major communities involved in the
development and application of ontologies in biomedicine and related
areas. ICBO is designed to meet this need.
Papers are invited on the following topics:
- Ontologies for Chemistry and Molecular Biology
- Ontologies in Literature Curation, Text and Data Mining
- Ontologies for Clinical and Translational Medicine
- Ontologies for Cell Biology
- Ontologies for Biomedical Investigations
- Ontology Engineering
- Ontologies and Standards
- Disease Ontologies
