=== Bio ===

Eric Prud'hommeaux has worked on Semantic Web standards for over 20 years, with a focus on clinical and bio-informatics standards. With Josh Mandel, he developed the initial representation of FHIR in RDF, and developed the Shape Expressions schema language to define and validate clinical data. Earlier work work in bio-informatics led to his creating W3C Working Groups for RDF Query (SPARQL) and XML Protocols (SOAP). His standards work is paired with projects for US government agencies (Food and Drug Administration, Department of Defense, Veterans Affairs), Pharmaceuticals, and international standards bodies (W3C, IETF, DDI). His goal is to build tools and standards that integrate clinical care into clinical research and democratize innovations in health care.

== Things I have worked on ==

* [[HCLSIG]] — I am active in COI, where I am working on ways to perform queries assuming a CTO ontology over data expressed in the CPO ontology (or even a Relational Databsae with a defined mapping to the CPO ontology). I have been active in BioRDF, where I did a little scripting (Homologene, iirc) and KB documentation.
* [[SPASQL]] — This is am implementation of a SPARQL parser built in to an RDB, in this case, MySQL. I am using the CPO/CTO use case discussed above as my first use case.
* [http://www.w3.org/2001/11/13-RDF-Query-Rules/ RDF query/rules languages survey]
* [http://www.w3.org/1999/02/26-modules/ RDF perllib]
* [[Algae]]
* [[SOAP Encoding RDF]]
* [[Embedding RDF in SOAP]]

== Data interop goals ==
I am interested in (compelled by) making RDF access the current data without any performance cost.
I never use the term "legacy" data as it's pejorative and indicates that this data will be somehow replaced.
RDF is a data model, not an implementation.
