CSHALS 2013
United States - MA - Cambridge

Hosted by: ISCB
Dates: Feb 20, 2013 through Feb 22, 2013

Description
 
CSHALS is the premier annual event focused on the use of semantic technologies in the pharmaceutical industry, including hospitals/healthcare institutions and academic research labs. With an expanded scope that includes the emerging field of data science, CSHALS is the place to be in 2013!

Topics covered by CSHALS 2013 span the continuum between standards development and big data workflows - the scope between Life Science data representation and its analysis. Conference organizers are accepting abstract submissions for poster and oral presentations in the following topic areas:

-Linked Data - generation, representation, and management of data using the Resource Description Framework (RDF) and Linked Data principles.
-Data Modeling - Ontologies, Taxonomies - practical application of knowledge engineering principles and techniques to data modeling.
-Text Analysis, NLP, Question Answering - use of semantic technologies for processing natural language.
-Cloud, Parallel, and Distributed Computing - use of semantic technologies for representation and management of distributed computational resources and workflows.
-Healthcare eScience - Translational Medicine, Pharmacogenomics - patient-centric use of semantic web technologies to handle the integration of clinical and biomolecular data.
-Business Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Analytics - semantic applications to inference and decision-making.
-Human Computer Interfaces - development of interfaces or design criteria that involve humans in the process of knowledge creation.
-Clinical Applications - Semantic web exploits as part of medical care delivery.
-Molecular Applications - Semantic web exploits in the biomolecular and biochemical domains.
-Applications to Emerging Health Disciplines - Use of the semantic web integrative and distributed nature to support emergence of novel applications in health care.
