Fifth Annual Bio-Ontologies Meeting
A Semantic Web of Bioinformatics Resources
8 August 2002, Edmonton, Canada
We would like to invite you to the fifth Annual Bio-Ontologies Meeting
(Bio-Ontologies 2002), on August 8th in Edmonton,
Canada. This is immediately after the ISMB-02 August 3-7 in Edmonton.
registration is available via http://www.ismb02/org.
This is usually a lively meeting; so submit abstracts and register as soon
as possible. We usually have a large crowd (10% of ISMB attendees in the
last two years), so come along to hear the latest developments in the
exciting world of bio-ontologies.
The meeting details may be found via
http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~stevensr/meeting02/ and any queries can be
directed to robert.stevens at cs.man.ac.uk.
Topics that will be discussed at the meeting will include, but not be
limited to:
* Presentation of ontologies for describing the content of
bioinformatics resources accessible on the Web;
* Presentation of ontologies for describing bioinformatics services
available on the Web;
* Exploitation of ontologically mark-up data and services;
* Applications that use bio-ontologies to support the work of biologists;
* Improving the collaboration between biologists developing ontology
content and computer scientists who can provide
ontology infra-structure;
* Ontologies produced by members from various genomics and life-science
efforts.
Please submit two page abstracts (approximately 1000 words) to
robert.stevens at cs.man.ac.uk by the end of June 2002. These abstracts will be
reviewed by a small programme committee. There will be three kinds of talk
at the day-long meeting:
1.A key-note address ;
2.A selection of 25 minute long-talks;
3.A selection of 10 minute short-talks.
