Several BMI-authored publications accepted for 2008 AMIA Annual Symposium
Thursday 07/10/2008
BMI is proud to announce that several new publications in the area of medical informatics have been accepted for the upcoming AMIA annual symposium. The publications, which include two main papers along with panels and abstracts, involve members of BMI’s Laboratory for Translational Research Computing (LTRC).
The first paper, titled "Supporting the Design of Translational Clinical Studies Through the Generation and Verification of Conceptual Knowledge-anchored Hypotheses", describes an novel conceptual knowledge engineering based approach to discovering and validating hypotheses based upon the contents of large scale translational research data repositories. As the paper reports, such hypotheses can then be used to support the design of prospective clinical studies intended to further evaluate such findings. This publication is an example of the ongoing collaboration between OSU BMI faculty member and lead author Philip Payne and the NCI funded CLL Research Consortium.
The second paper is titled "Development of a Reference Information Model and Knowledgebase for Electronic Bloodstream Infection Detection". The publication is part of an effort to "encourage the standardization of reporting and aggregation of infection data to increase and improve reporting, and enable rate comparisons among healthcare institutions," according to its lead author, Tara Borlawsky.
The authors for these two papers are listed below along with the panels and abstracts that have also been accepted for the 2008 Symposium. AMIA's annual event will take place November 8-12th in Washington, D.C. For the official conference website click here.
