I forget, was someone submitting an abstract about our work to this
workshop?

ABOUT THE BIO-ONTOLOGIES SIG WORKSHOP
The workshop will continue offer an informal environment for
presentation and discussion of ontologies and their role in
providing a mechanism for organising, sharing and reconciling data.
This year, to celebrate its tenth anniversary, we have invited four
presenters from the first bio-ontologies tutorial and meeting
organisers to sit on a panel, namely: Mark Musen, Peter Karp, Russ
Altman and Steffen Schulze-Kremer
They will be asked to present positions on the following questions:
1. What has been the best thing to have happened in bio-ontologies
in the past ten years?
2. What has been the worst thing to have happened in bio-ontologies
in the past ten years?
3. How must bio-ontologies progress in the next ten years?
4. How must bio-ontologies not progress in the next ten years
CALL FOR PAPERS AND POSTER ABSTRACT:
We are inviting two types of submissions SHORT PAPER papers (up to
4 pages) and POSTER ABSTRACT (up to 1/2 page) from any aspect doing
bio-ontology research or using bio-ontologies to do bioinformatics
research. Topics include, but are not restricted to:
- Biological Applications of Ontologies
- Reports on Newly Developed or Existing Bio-Ontologies
- Tools for Developing Ontologies
- Use of Ontologies in Data Communication Standards
- Use of Semantic Web technologies in Bioinformatics
- The implications of Bio-Ontologies or the Semantic Web for the
drug discovery process
- Current Research In Ontology Languages and its implication for
Bio-Ontologies
PROGRAM COMMITTEE
Abstracts will be reviewed by the Program Committee, including the
Program Chairs and additionally: David Benton, Suzanna Lewis, Chris
Mungall and Alan Ruttenberg.
PUBLICATION OF THE PROCEEDINGS
The Programme Committee will also select those papers, which are
suitable for further publication in a BMC Bioinformatics
Supplement. Authors will be invited to resubmit full papers.
