CTS Ontology Workshop 2023

Background

Ontologies, AI and Electronic Health Records

More about the Clinical and Translational Science Ontology Group (CTSOG) and previous meetings.

Feb 23 - 24, 2023 - Charleston, SC

The Clinical and Translational Science Ontology Group (CTSOG) invites you to join us March 16-18, 2022 in Orlando, Florida to discuss AI, Complex Systems in Biomedicine, and the role of ontology both in tempering the expectations of AI and advancing it to goals it can achieve. For example, we hear things all the time like “Google’s deep-learning program for determining the 3D shapes of proteins stands to transform biology, say scientists.” An optimism of this sort as to the potential of AI is shared by many working in the field of clinical and translational science. The purpose of this workshop is to explore the basis for this optimism, by looking at successes and failures of AI in different areas of biomedicine.
