The Conference on Semantics in Healthcare and Life Sciences (CSHALS) presented by the International Society for Computational Biology is considered the premier conference focusing on the pharmaceutical applications of Semantic Technologies. It serves as a forum for the presentation and discussion of practical semantics-based approaches to Drug R&D, organized along specific topics and moderated to induce interactive discussions around sets of key questions. The conference is intended for anyone interested in understanding how best to apply intelligent information technologies in Pharmaceutical R&D.
CSHALS in an official conference of the International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB). ISCB is dedicated to advancing the scientific understanding of living systems through computation and organizes annual conferences such as ISMB and Rocky Mountain Bioinformatics Conference. The ISCB communicates the significance of our science to the larger scientific community, governments, and the public at large. The ISCB serves a global membership by impacting government and scientific policies, providing high quality publications and meetings, and through distribution of valuable information about training, education, employment and relevant news from related fields. ISCB membership offers many benefits including reduced conference registration fees to several high impact events and reduced subscription prices for a selection of journals of Computational Biology and Bioinformatics.
