&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; ''Richard Scheuermann'', Ph.D., is the Director of the La Jolla Campus at the J. Craig Venter Institute (JCVI) and an Adjunct Professor of Pathology at U.C. San Diego.  Dr. Scheuermann has applied his deep knowledge of molecular immunology and infectious disease to the development of novel computational data mining methods and knowledge representation approaches, including the development of biomedical ontologies and their use in data mining, and the development of novel methods for gene expression, protein network, flow cytometry, and comparative genomics data analysis.  These computational methods have been made available through several public database and analysis resources, including the Influenza Research Database (IRD; https://www.fludb.org), the Virus Pathogen Resource (ViPR; https://www.viprbrc.org) and the Immunology Database and Analysis Portal (ImmPort; https://immport.niaid.nih.gov/) supported by the U.S. National Institutes of Health.
 
6:30pm: Dinner (Note: A nice Ann Arbor restaurant will be reserved for those who wish to join. The cost of dinner is not included in the workshop.)

<b>Thursday Morning </b>

8:20am: Remarks from Dr. Bob Dysko (University of Michigan)
 
8:30am: '''Keynote address 2: Ontology support of clinical, epidemiological, and microbiome data exploration ''' - Dr. Chris Stoeckert (UPenn) <sup>[http://ncorwiki.buffalo.edu/index.php/File:StoeckertOntologyClinicalEpidemiologyMIcrobiome.pptx Slides]</sup>
[[File:Stoeckert-photo.jpg|thumb|150px|left|link=http://www.med.upenn.edu/apps/faculty/index.php/g306/c404/p6403|Chris Stoeckert]] '''Abstract''': The challenge of working with Big Data is not only scale but in many situations, also the complexity of what the data is about. This is especially true of clinical and epidemiological data where data is obtained for critical variables but often in an ad hoc and inconsistent manner. Critical understanding of how these variables impact health and host microbiome interactions requires analyses across different studies and data sources.  Ontologies are key to meeting this challenge through providing semantic harmonization of common and specialized types of data; the realist process approach followed by ontologies in Open Biomedical Ontologies (OBO) Foundry (http://obofoundry.org/) provides a common understanding of what the data is about. We are using application ontologies based on OBO Foundry ontologies to encode our understanding of data dictionaries in multiple projects. The projects range from the epidemiology and transmission patterns of malaria to enteric pathogen influence on morbidity and mortality in young children. An additional challenge is to transform ontologic representations into user-friendly web interface terminologies for data exploration.  MicrobiomeDB (http://microbiomedb.org/mbio/) provides a web-based data-mining platform for interrogating microbiome experiments and makes use of our ontology and web interface terminology approach. The real power of ontologies will come from instantiation of data in these ontologies and the ability to do inferencing and searches of such data. A goal of the TURBO (Transforming and Unifying Research with Biomedical Ontologies) project at Penn is to instantiate an OBO Foundry-based application ontology with clinical data to support research starting with finding patient cohorts and biobank specimens.
 
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; ''Chris Stoeckert'' is a Research Professor of Genetics and faculty in the Institute of Biomedical Informatics at the University of Pennsylvania. He works on databases supporting the mining of complex datasets. Currently, he is co-investigator of the NIAID EuPath Bioinformatic Research Center supporting research on eukaryotic pathogens and a co-investigator of the NIA Genomics Alzheimers Disease Storage Site project supporting research of AD and related dementias. That and prior database work has gotten him involved in development of data standards such as MIAME (Minimal Information About a Microarray Experiment), MAGE-TAB format standard for reporting microarray experiments, and the development of biomedical ontologies such as the MGED Ontology.  He is a core developer of the Ontology for Biomedical Investigations (OBI), leads the development of the Ontology for Biobanking (OBIB), and serves on the OBO Foundry Operations Committee and Editorial Working Groups.  He is faculty director of the TURBO (Transforming & Unifying Research with Biomedical Ontologies) project at Penn aimed at semantic harmonization and integration of clinical data.

=='''Rationale'''==
The CTSA Program has always emphasized the need for data standards to promote sharing and comparison of data across the CTSA Consortium and beyond. Yet creation and adoption of such standards is still painfully slow. Urgent action remains necessary. History shows the high value of standard terms, definitions, and symbols (i.e. ontology) to science. But the creation and adoption of such standards often takes decades. Translational science requires a consistent set of standard ontologies spanning all scales, from molecule to organism to population. In this year's meeting we focus on resources for describing data at the scale of micro-organisms.
 
== '''Goals'''==
The [http://ncorwiki.buffalo.edu/index.php/Clinical_and_Translational_Science_Ontology_Group Clinical and Translational Science Ontology Group] was established in 2012 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 creation, sharing, and analysis of clinical data.
 
Like its predecessors in the [http://ncorwiki.buffalo.edu/index.php/Clinical_and_Translational_Science_Ontology_Group#Annual_Workshops series], this meeting is designed to bring together clinical and translational scientists from across the CTSA Consortium who are interested in using ontologies to promote discoverability and interoperability of biomedical data.
 
Persons interested in attending or in presenting at the meeting should write to [mailto:].
 
== '''Travel Fund Application'''==
We have secured $2000 as a travel fund, owing to Dr. Bob Dysko (the director of the Unit for Laboratory Animal Medicine in the University of Michigan Medical School), to support new investigators to attend the workshop.
 
If you are interested, please submit a short vita with a rationale for attendance to Dr. Oliver He at yongqunh@med.umich.edu by August 30, 2017. Decisions will be made August 31, 2017.
