Advancements in biomedical research require the sharing of datasets, integration of disparate datasets, and access to shared knowledge frameworks. Therefore, it is important that biomedical knowledge is encoded in ways that are semantically precise, standardized, and computable. Our research topics include quality assurance for biomedical ontologies, ontology-guided data integration, and the development of user interfaces to support interacting with ontologies.
