Minutes
Attendees: Joshua, Jun, Kei, Matthias, Susie
Apologies: Bosse, Anja, Egon
- Let's discuss Open Data follow up when more people are present
- Let's do a data update another time too
- Conference Opportunities
- Matthias is still interested in the TCM special issue
- Jun is also interested in that
- The deadline is end of January, so is approaching
- Matthias also interested in ESWC
- Deadline for ESWC is mid-December
- Matthias and Jun aim for submission on chinese medicine related material at ESWC and in the special issue
- Not a disaster if we miss the ESWC deadline
- Susie is interested in submission to Bio-Ontologies SIG
- Susie is biased as co-chair of the SIG
- Thinks ISMB will be strong next year because it is in Boston
- And also because of collaboration with HCLS, and ICBO
- Bio-Ontologies SIG doesn't just focus on ontologies, so would be an appropriate venue
- Acceptance rate is typically higher at SIG, than conference proper
- Although the SIG itself is very competitive
- Another advantage of SIG is 4 page paper submission
- Propose go for the SIG and submit paper on applying TMO to research
- CaBIG
- Joshua interested in seeing how TMO could apply to caBIG use cases
- Susie will share JBI paper with Joshua once completed
- Ask Colin to review caBIG use cases to see if good fit for the ontology
- CaBIG collaboration sounds good
- Work could be done in TMO, or BioRDF, or in a new group
- Looks like COI winding down as tasks are expected to do
- Good time as caBIG investing in data sharing next year
- Joshua would like to learn best practices from HCLS
