This Task Force will be focusing on how best to utilize semantic web  
standards around information for clinical trials and issues regarding  
Translational Medicine, with attention to other standards activities  
such as CDISC's SDTM, HL7-RCRIM, and NCI's Janus data system.

The group is open to all W3C members and HCLS invited experts, and  
those interested are encouraged to sign up through the DSE wiki site:  
http://esw.w3.org/topic/HCLSIG/Drug_Safety_and_Efficacy

The DSE TF activities will include scenario development and use case  
demonstrations wrt clinical trials. These activities will not take  
place over the public semweb-lifesci mailing list due to the  
membership requirement. However, public reports created by DSE TF  
will be communicated using the public list, and documents will be  
posted on the public wiki site.

We will be meeting at the F2F in Amsterdam to discuss the proposed  
activities-- please join us if you are interested!
