Hi - I'm Tim Clark, Assistant Professor of Neurology at Harvard Medical School, and Director of Informatics at the MassGeneral Institute for Neurodegenerative Disease. My academic training is in computer science, with about 25 years experience in both academic and industrial bioinformatics. I co-authored the original Annotation Ontology (AO) paper and am Principal Investigator for the Domeo Web Annotation toolkit and the Annotopia Open Annotation Server projects. Paolo Ciccarese and I helped to co-found the W3C Open Annotation Community Group with Rob Sanderson, Herbert Van De Somple, Tim Cole, and several others - with excellent assistance by Ivan Herman of W3C. My research group has a long-standing practice in Annotation and has done significant work in both web annotation and semantic models of biomedical communications, starting with the SWAN project and ontology, through AO and OA, up to the recent Micropublications model (Clark et al., Journal of Biomedical Semantics 2014, 5:28, doi:10.1186/2041-1480-5-28). Delighted to see this research area begin to take off and happy to be part of this process!
