The National Center for Biomedical Ontology is hosting two developer
events this spring: a Training Course on *Building Applications with
Biomedical Ontologies* at the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI)
and an *NCBO Hackathon* at Stanford University.
The training course on *Building Applications with Biomedical
Ontologies* will take place on April 18-19, 2013. This course will be
taught by a team from EBI (James Malone and Simon Jupp) and a team from
Stanford (Trish Whetzel and Paul Alexander). We will cover topics such
as the OWL ontology language, working with RDF and SPARQL, and how to
work with ontologies using NCBO Technology. Those attending the course
should already have basic familiarity with both ontologies and
programming in Java. Checkout the link below for more information and
register soon since space is limited!

The *NCBO Hackathon* will take place at Stanford University on April
29-30, 2013. This event will focus on projects in biomedical or clinical
informatics that can benefit from use of ontology-based technology. The
entire NCBO Team will be available to brainstorm application ideas and
to answer development questions. We will also have separate sessions to
provide training on the NCBO Web services, the BioPortal SPARQL
endpoint, and other topics of interest requested by participants. If you
are thinking of incorporating semantics into your software application,
the Hackathon will provide a great opportunity to get a head start*//*on
your project. Register soon at the link below to hold your spot!

Look forward to seeing you this Spring!
