CSHALS is the premier annual event focused on the practical application of Semantic Web and other semantic technologies to problems in the Life Sciences, including pharmaceutical industry and related areas, such as hospitals/healthcare institutions and academic research labs.

CSHALS has for 7 years been the ISCB reference conference for cutting-edge practitioners of knowledge engineering and forward-thinking strategists in information and knowledge management in the life sciences. Topics covered by CSHALS 2014 span the continuum between semantic standards development, data analytics, knowledge representation, information and knowledge management, knowledge engineering, and machine learning and reasoning.

CSHALS 2014 should be part of your plans for 2014!
