Finding useful data across multiple biomedical data repositories using DataMed.

Nature genetics
The value of broadening searches for data across multiple repositories has been identified by the biomedical research community. As part of the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) Big Data to Knowledge initiative, we work with an international com...

Using an Ontology-Based Approach to Handle Author Affiliations in a Large Biomedical Citation Database.

Studies in health technology and informatics
To handle differences in affiliation names submitted with biomedical journal articles, we build an affiliation knowledge base named Authority File for Affiliations (AFA) based on ontology principles. There are currently 113,700 affiliation concepts w...
