We are pleased to announce the upcoming Tutorial and Workshop on Ontology and Imaging Informatics at the University at Buffalo NY on June 23-25, 2014.  Please forward this announcement to interested colleagues.

The goal of this meeting is to advance discoverability, interoperability
and combinability of biomedical imaging data. It consists of a tutorial
(June 23) providing an introduction to imaging ontology, followed by two
days of presentation and discussion of major contributions to biomedical
imaging in radiology and digital pathology. The meeting will include
community breakout groups addressing specific communities, including the
CTSA consortium.

Among the highlights of the schedule are the following presentations:

   - Ulysses Balis (Michigan): Introduction to Imaging Informatics: The
   Problem of Image Data Interoperability
   - William Hogan (Arkansas): Ontology in the CTSA Consortium
   - Daniel Rubin (Stanford): Imaging Big Data
   - Michael J. Becich (Pittsburgh): An Overview of Standards and
   Initiatives in Digital Pathology
   - Charles Kahn (Milwaukee): Radiology Gamuts Ontology: Differential
   Diagnosis in Radiology

The meeting is sponsored by

   - Department of Pathology and Anatomy, University at Buffalo
   - Clinical and Translational Science Ontology Group.
   - National Center for Biomedical Ontology (NCBO)

There is no participation fee but intending participants are invited to
contact Barry Smith <phismith@buffalo.edu> to express their interest in
attending. A schedule and logistics details are available
