Hotels

We have a block of rooms reserved near the NCI building which is our venue on Day 1 in:

Hilton Garden Inn Rockville-Gaithersburg

14975 Shady Grove Road

Rockville, MD

(240) 507-1900

The link for reservations is here. Cut-off date is April 13th.

For other hotels in the area, see this list.

Venue

  • Day 1 (10am-5pm) will be in NCI's Shady Grove building (9609 Medical Center Dr, Rockville, MD, 20850), in Room 2W-32/34.
  • Day 2 (9am-3pm) will be a public session in Balcony A, Natcher Conference Center, NIH Building 45, Bethesda, MD 20892

Goal of the meeting (to be expanded): To better understand the challenges involved in using big data for cancer research, and to explore the utility of ontologies in addressing these challenges.

Draft Schedule

Session 1: Addressing cancer big data challenges through imaging ontologies

Tuesday, May 12 in NCI Shady Grove building (9609 Medical Center Dr, Rockville, MD, 20850), Room 2W-32/34

10:00-13:00

Barry Smith (Buffalo): The cancer research ontology space: An introduction

an introduction to existing ontology resources in the cancer domain, including NCI Thesaurus and the OBO Foundry; addressing opportunities and reasons for scepticism as concerns the use of ontologies in addressing cancer big data

Ilya Goldberg (NIA): The Role of Imaging Ontologies in Cancer Big Data

Metin Gurcan (Ohio) and John Tomaszewski (Buffalo): How Ontologies Can Help in Addressing the Big Data Challenges of Pathology Imaging?

TBD

13:00 Lunch

Session 2: Addressing cancer big data challenges with the Ontology for Biomedical Investigations (OBI)

14:00-17:00

Chris Stoeckert (Penn): Integration and alignment of ontologies for cancer metadata collection based on OBI

tasks: address the challenge that cancer research is multidisciplinary and requires standard terminology from multiple domains.
briefly describe OBI and show how it has been used for collecting clinical and -omic metadata highlighting relevance to cancer data and integration of other ontologies for that purpose.

Gully Burns (UCSD): Applying OBI to cancer pathways via Knowledge Engineering from Experimental Design (KEfED)

addresses the challenge that much of what is known about cancer is only available in publications and requires text mining including the experimental basis for that knowledge.
application of OBI as semantic base for text mining and knowledge engineering.

Philippe Rocca-Serra: How can OBI contribute to unraveling cancer etiology? Scope, Gaps and Future Development of an interoperable semantic resource

address the challenge that cancer big data is multi-scale and requires agents to analyze.
demonstrate use of OBI in annotation and data discovery. Address alternatives to OBI and pros and cons.

Mathias Brochhausen (Arkansas): OBI-based integration of biobank data for cancer research

Session 3: Cancer big data and the Ontology of Disease: Addressing Cancer Big Data Challenges

Wednesday, Mar 13 in Balcony A, Natcher, 9:00-12:00

Roles of Ontologies in Cancer Big Data (9:00 -10:00 am)

Lynn Schriml (University of Maryland Baltimore): A Human Disease Ontology unified representation of cancer disease terms from COSMIC, ICGC, TCGA, IntOGen and UniProt

topics to be covered include:
1. the genetic view of disease in the Human Disease Ontology (mutation types, inheritance types, specific mutations, chromosome locations);
2. Institute of Medicine proposals for a new disease taxonomy resting on defining diseases by their underlying molecular causes and other factors in addition to their traditional physical signs and symptoms, for example dividing lung cancers into subsets defined by driver mutations

[15 min break]

The Role of Ontology in Big Cancer Data Use Cases [10:15 -11:15]

Lindsay Cowell (UT Southwestern): HPV and cervical cancer data in Electronic Health Records -- A Big Data challenge

what types of data do we need to represent? HPV and cervical cancer and the Infectious Disease Ontology; challenges involved in keeping and using large collections of samples and of sample data

Raja Mazumder (George Washington University): The need for cancer disease ontology for pan-cancer data integration and analysis.


Peter Elkin (University of Buffalo)

Discussion: (11:15 -12:00)

Session Wrap Up: Ontology/vocabulary challenges, Use case challenges Challenges, Needs, Action Item Solutions, short term steps, long term goals


12:00 Lunch

Public Session: Cancer Big Data to Knowledge

13:00-15:00

Barry Smith (Chair)

Philip E. Bourne (NIH / ADDS): The NIH Big Data Strategy

Cathy Wu (University of Delaware / PRO): Ontology and the Precision Medicine Initiative: The Role of OBO Foundry Ontologies in Protein-Centric Cancer Knowledge Network Discovery
