Concall Scientific Discourse Task Force October 31 2011
Agenda: tentative use cases as per 31 Oct 2011
1. Enhance Drug-mechanism Knowledge in Drug Product Labels
- Leads: Richard Boyce, Jodi Schneider, Anita de Waard
- Partners: DERI, Elsevier – still need pharma partner
Also based on:
2. Defining minimal information requirements for biomedical investigations defined and mapped to RDF
- Leads: Tim Clark, Susanne Santone, David Shotton
3. Mining Treatment Outcomes: Develop a generic, anonymised, multi-EHS compliant format and an information architecture that allows access to symptom/treatment data as a Linked Data source that can be made freely available and used for drug efficacy/outcome (meta)studies
- Leads: Joanne Luciano, Anita de Waard
- Partners: RPI, Elsevier, - need clinical/patient forum and/or pharma partner
Notes:
10:08 Anita Richard Boyce will lead use case 1. Status: he spoke with managing editor of ePocrates, a platform for drug information software, free handheld tool - are looking into partnering with use case. 10:10 Anita Writing of UC 1: Happy to follow suggestions on Google doc and get confirmation from everyone on the UC - Mike Taylor from Elsevier combined two UCses (with Hypotheses/Evidence one) into one. 10:13 Anita Rich will lead the rewrite of UC 1. 10:14 Anita Pieder Caduff from Elsevier has indicated we can contribute a number of drug records from the Elsevier drug database Reaxys. 10:15 Anita Rich will select a specific set of drug classes, e.g. antidepressants, often used in nursing home environment to increase appetite, sleeping; investigate drug interactions in regimes in elderly patients. 10:16 boycer please type his name 10:17 Anita MIke - ideas about technology? Epistemic support - have been working on NLP algorithm for PI but need to set up a pipeline for this. 10:20 Anita Mike Taylor: we used GATE to tag textbooks using our internal ontologies; lacked Machine Learning techniques to see if we can work on identifying sentences with the right pattern. 10:20 boycer I2B2 challenge 10:21 boycer drug information extraction from scientific text 10:21 Anita https://www.i2b2.org/NLP/Coreference/Call.php 10:21 Tim http://code.google.com/p/annotation-ontology/ 10:22 boycer https://www.i2b2.org/NLP/Medication/ 10:24 boycer J Am Med Inform Assoc. 2010 10:24 boycer september 10:25 Anita Could add NLP smarts from ISI/Hovy 10:25 Anita Could use the Harvard Annotation Framework for hosting data and running the pipeline 10:26 Anita We will have a separate call on this UC. 10:27 Tim DOMEO annotation toolkit / framework - webinar http://www.bioontology.org/annotation-ontology 10:32 Anita Use case 2: discussing different projects with IsATab with David Shotton and Susanna Sansone, who have slightly conflicting models - may pick one of the levels of generality, that will work for everyone. 10:34 Anita Better title: Defining core metadata for describing biomedical investigations 10:34 Anita 3. Mining Treatment Outcomes: Develop a generic, anonymised, multi-EHS compliant format and an information architecture that allows access to symptom/treatment data as a Linked Data source that can be made freely available and used for drug efficacy/outcome (meta)studies 10:35 Anita SymTrends - self-tracking symptoms by patients 10:38 Anita Other use cases to the people on the call? Answer: no! 10:39 Anita Everybody still there? Yes! AOB? No. Close the call!
