Goals of the OBML
The series “Ontologies in Biomedicine and Life Sciences” (OBML workshop) was initiated by the workgroup for OBML of the German Society for Computer Science in 2009. The OBML aims to bring together scientists who are working in this area to exchange ideas and discuss new results, to start collaborations and to initiate new projects. The OBML workshop is held once annually and deals with all fundamental aspects of biomedical ontologies as well as additional “hot” topics.
Submissions are requested especially for the following topics:
- Ontologies and terminologies in biology, medicine, and clinical research;
- Ontologies for knowledge representation, methods of reasoning, integration and interoperability of ontologies;
- Methods and tools for the construction and management of ontologies; and
- Applications of the Semantic Web in biomedicine and the life sciences.
The focus of the OBML-2011 is Phenotype ontologies in medicine and biomedical research
“Integration” and “interoperability,” it sounds like they are singing the topic map song! 😉
