  Ontologies and Data Integration in Biomedicine
  From Biomedical Informatics to Translational Research
  
  ABSTRACT: Review examples of successful biomedical data integration projects in which ontologies play an important role, including the integration of genomic data based on Gene Ontology annotations, the cancer Biomedical Informatics Grid (caBIG) project, and semantic mashups created by the Semantic Web for Health Care and Life Sciences community. Challenges to data integration in biomedicine will also be discussed.
