Prof. Sophia Ananiadou, director of NaCTeM, and Dr. Riza Batista-Navarro are co-organisers of a workshop entitled Reading, Assembling and Reasoning for Biocuration to be held as part of the 10th International Biocuration conference conference, to be held at Stanford University, USA on March 26th-29th, 2017

Organizers: Sophia Ananiadou, Riza Batista-Navarro, Paul Cohen, Diana Chung, Emek Demir, Lynette Hirschman, Parag Mallik

Summary: We will focus on recent advances in the development of integrated systems to capture "Big Mechanisms" for biological systems, including machine reading of journal articles, (semi-)automated assembly of signaling pathway models, and machine-aided analysis of these models for tasks such as drug repurposing and explaining drugs' effects. This workshop will consist of invited speakers and contributed talks and/or panel discussions from experts in biocuration, machine reading, and biological modeling.
