Fifth Annual Symposium of the Clinical and Translational Science Ontology Group

Date: September 7-8, 2016

Venue: Ramada Hotel, Amherst, NY

Goals:

Advancing Patient Care and Translational Science through SNOMED CT, ontologies, and beyond​

which has been established to leverage the use of common ontologies to support different aspects of information-driven clinical and translational research. The focus of this meeting is to explore new and existing uses of common ontologies to support sharing and discovery of data and resources, researcher networking, and particularly to support the evaluation of research.

​Goals would include:​

​A​dvanc​ing​ reproducibility ​of clinical and translational research (BFO, OBI, LOINC)

​Advancing EHR interoperability​ (addressing SNOMED and meaningful use regulations)

​Improving EHR data usability​

​Advancing interoperability of clinical data generally (​

​I​mproving SNOMED usability

​Improving EHR usability in the clinic

Agree with Øystein's additional comments that we should invite folks from i2b2 (although it is no longer solely about i2b2).

I would add that we ought to also pull in other EHR data re-users, such as folks from PCORnet community and OHDSI (they have the OMOP common data model). Of course, there is significant overlap among i2b2, PCORnet, and OMOP​, so it shouldn't be too hard.

But for example we should include Michael Kahn from Colorado if we're serious about that community.

I also think Øystein's comment about context is a good. I gave a lecture in my class about how context is really just data you don't need except in exceptional circumstances (echoing my remarks to the NASA panel at ICBO). Usual context for BP is sitting in a clinic. But suddenly, you can't assume that when the BP was taken on the space station. Now you need all the data about where, how many miles above earth, etc.
