Abstract

In this project, we propose a paradigm shift from the use of relational databases and traditional web publishing tools to a Semantically-Integrated Research Content Management System augmented with research collaboration functionality for curation of cancer research data. By using a prototype called BioSEME, we will aggregate cancer biomarker-related PubMed literature data using term-specific data feeds. The data will then be annotated by designated users using the standardized taxonomy and vocabulary derived from known ontologies and cancer-related literature, which is subsequently associated and published through the semantically-enhanced user interface. We believe that in the future such online collaborative-research community and semanticallyintegrated virtual scientific knowledge environment will help support the cancer research community.
