Re: introductions: Daniel Rubin, Stanford University

Hello everyone,

I am Daniel Rubin, Research Scientist in Stanford Medical Informatics and 
Clinical Asst. Professor in Radiology at Stanford University. I'm currently 
working with Mark Musen and the Protege group, and am the Executive 
Director of the National Center for Biomedical Ontology 
(<http://bioontology.org>http://bioontology.org), funded under the NIH 
Roadmap initiative to develop technology to enable the scientific community 
to access biomedical ontologies and use them to analyze biomedical data. I 
have worked on several knowledge-based and decision-support projects, such 
as the PharmGKB project (with Russ Altman) and the Virtual Soldier Project. 
I also participate in the NCI caBIG In-vivo Imaging Workspace to create an 
imaging informatics infrastructure for cancer research.

I am interested in using the Semantic Web to access and integrate diverse 
biomedical knowledge with image data, to index images and data, and to 
enable image findings to be related to other data pertinent to their 
contents. I am also interested in using natural language processing with 
ontologies to bootstrap creating Semantic Web content.
