Day 1. Monday 4th May
- 9:00AM-9:10AM James Glazer (Indiana University) Welcome
- 9:10AM-9:30AM Imran Shah (EPA)-Virtual Tissues and the importance of standards for Multi-Cell simulations (20min)
- 9:30AM-9:50AM James Glazier (Indiana University)—Introduction—Need for Cell Behavior Ontology, Context of Multicell Modeling and need for an implementation-independent model-specification language. Aims of Workshop and Operating Structure: Goal is to create as many agreed levels of Ontology Hierarchy as possible within our limited time frame and to draft a white paper which will be developed into a publication.
- 9:50AM-10:35AM Keynote: Oliver Bodenreider (NIH)–Building Ontologies—Best practice, pitfalls and positives.
- 10:35AM-11:05AM Herbert Sauro/Michal Galdzicki (University of Washington)-Building Ontologies and Standards in the Systems Biology Community.
- 11:05AM-12:00PM Alexander Diehl (G0/MGI)-GO Ontology—Aims of the Biological Processes Subtree of GO. Overall aims of GO, protocols for updating and modification of GO. Review of the existing GO Biological Processes subtree.
- 12:00PM-12:15PM James Glazier (Indiana University)-What we are going to accomplish for tomorrow—Highest Two Levels of the Draft Ontology.
- 12:15PM-1:15PM LUNCH
- 1:15-2:00 Dan Cook (University of Washington)-Building Ontologies and the OPB
- 2:00M-4:45PM Plenary Discussion Section—Drafting of Top two levels of Ontology.
- 4:45PM-5:00PM Assignments—Divide the Top-level concepts into three groups and assign each participant to one of these three working groups. Select Group leaders and facilitators.
Day 2. Tuesday 5th May
- 8:00AM-11:00AM Breakout Sessions: Each group will work down from the root concepts assigned to them and develop as many sublevels as possible.
- 11:00AM-12:00PM Plenary session: Each group will present their work for comment, updating. Work will be integrated into new draft ontology during following break. Individuals can move among working groups as appropriate at end of each plenary session.
- 12:00PM-1:00PM LUNCH
- 1:00PM-4:00PM Breakout Sessions: Each group will work down from the root concepts assigned to them and develop as many sublevels as possible.
- 4:00PM-5:00PM Plenary session: Each group will present their work for comment, updating. Work will be integrated into new draft ontology during following break. Individuals can move among working groups as appropriate.
Day 3. Wednesday 6th May
- 8:00AM-11:00AM Breakout Sessions: Each group will work down from the root concepts assigned to them and develop as many sublevels as possible. If group is satisfied with level of detail achieved, begin discussion of ML translation of ontology.
- 11:00AM-12:00PM Plenary session: Each group will present their work for comment, updating. Work will be integrated into new draft ontology during following break. Individuals can move among working groups as appropriate.
- 12:00PM-1:00PM LUNCH
