Afternoon Practical Session: Building Small Ontologies in the Immunological Domain
1:00pm Establish target areas of interest (drawing on the work initiated in the 8:30am session above). Participants will suggest possible target areas, expanding this list in light of their own areas of interest and expertise.
- Adaptive immunity
- Immune tolerance
- Inflammation
- Adaptive immunity
- Innate immunity
- Mucosal immunity
- Transplantation immunology /MHC
- Tumor microenvironment / Cancer
- Virology
(These are all areas for which a suitable single ontology does not already exist. Some of the items are taken from the DAIT list here.)
1:10 Participants will be divided into corresponding breakout groups. The task of each group will be to create a workplan for building an ontology (or ontologies) for their selected area. The workplan will consist minimally of
- i. a list of main terms in their selected area -- to create this list participants can use the terminological resources they use in their own work or any other source
Two samples:
- allergy and allergic disease
- soluble proteins (including cytokines and chemokines) relevant to the work of HIPC]
- ii. a list of the main ontologies they would harvest as starting points; in identifying these ontologies participants should experiment with two or more of the ontology portals listed below
Each group should select a reporter, who will present the results of the group's work, and a recorder, who will take notes of the discussions and have control of the powerpoint slides documenting the results of these discussions.
2:20 Presentation of results: Each group is required to produce at least 4 slides summarizing the results of their work.
- Slide 1: Title and author list
- Slide 2: Quick comparison of the experience of using the 4 ontology browsers listed above; optional report on experience using MeSH
- Slide 3: List of the principal ontologies selected to be used as sources / starting points for development of the needed ontology
- Slide 4: List of the main terms in the ontology (if possible with some rudimentary BFO organization)
