Future directions
• Engage more stakeholders
• Continue development
• Evaluation approaches and metrics
– Based on scientific use cases
– Categories of use cases
• Interoperability
– Data exchange
– Accuracy of representation
– Homonyms and context; ontology helps us do
that
• Reasoning and inference
– Test with CTSA IT Project
• Funding - development workshops, etc.
“The opportunities have never been greater to use
modern research advances in genomics and
proteomics and other novel strategies to bring new
insights into the study of disease and human
populations. We need to take advantage of these
opportunities and transform how we practice
medicine.”
