Three Health Care and Life Science Interest Group Notes Published

The Semantic Web Health Care and Life Sciences Interest Group published three Interest Group notes produced by the Scientific Discourse Task Force:

• Semantic Web Applications in Neuromedicine (SWAN) Ontology
• SIOC, SIOC Types and Health Care and Life Sciences
• SWAN/SIOC: Alignment Between the SWAN and SIOC Ontologies

These notes describe how one can use the Semantic Web to express and integrate scientific data from different domains and from heterogeneous services. It is hoped that they will inspire further contributions to the ongoing work of the Health Care and Life Sciences Interest Group and its Scientific Discourse Task Force, as well as inspire those in other domains to exploit the Semantic Web. On a related topic, the Interest Group holds a Workshop on Scientific Discourse at ISWC 2009 on Monday, 26 October. Learn more about the Semantic Web.
