In the recent years, key research and development projects related to precision medicine have also received great support in many countries including China. With the wide application of various high-throughput technologies in the field of biomedical research, how to achieve effective integration and utilization of the massive data generated by these new technologies still has great challenges. Biomedical ontology and terminology play an increasingly important role in the elimination of data heterogeneity, supporting data analysis, knowledge organization, and reasoning. At the moment, the terminology and ontology show a trend of mutual integration, which together form the cornerstone of medical big data and precision medicine.
To promote the development and exchange of biomedical ontology and terminology research and application communities, and promote professional dialogue and sharing of results in the field of biomedical big data production, learning and research, the National Scientific Data Sharing Platform for Population Health in China will launch the first Chinese Conference on Biomedical Ontology and Terminology (CCBOT-2018) in Beijing, China on November 7-9, 2018. We sincerely invite your participation in the event.
Main Topics
Terminology, ontology and precision medicine, ontology and knowledge organization, ontology and cross-domain data integration, ontology applications, ontology promotion and training, etc.
