Ontology in Practice


The Fourth Clinical and Translational Science Ontology Workshop

September 23 - 25, Charleston, SC


Venue

The Francis Marion Hotel 387 King Street, Charleston, SC 29403

Starts: Wed 9/23/15 at 5pm with an optional reception. The workshop begins at 8am Thu 9/24/15.

Ends: Fri 9/25/2015 3pm

Registration

Registration is now open.

There is a $80 registration fee to support venue expenses and conference meals.

Themes

  1. FHIR and Ontology
  2. Making ontologies work in real world use cases
  3. Modifying or adopting existing ontologies
  4. Practical benefits -- and disbenefits -- of using ontologies
  5. Mapping terminologies to ontologies; Automated classification/annotation/NLP

Sub-themes

  • Using ontologies for electronic data capture.
  • Ontologies for biobanking and informed consents.
  • Automated annotation, automated classification, clinical (or other) notes NLP, are some ontologies are better for NLP than others?
  • In the medical space: ontology and HL7 Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR); Ontology and LOINC.
  • Work on merging LOINC, SNOMED-CT and RxNorm; Leveraging Basic Formal Ontology (BFO).
  • Ontology portals: connecting ontologies, using ontologies in non-redundant comprehensive manner, separating the wheat from the chaff, promoting ontology reuse.
  • Bridging research resources and expertise using ontologies.
  • Licensing issues in adoption of ontologies or terminologies.
