Re: introductions: Davide Zaccagnini, Language and Computing NV

Hi Everyone,

 

My name is Davide Zaccagnini, I represent Language and Computing NV at the
W3C. 

I'm a physician by back-ground. I'm currently working on ontologies and
description logic-based reasoning for medical knowledge discovery, medical
data integration and information extraction.

Before joining my company I was a research fellow at MIT where I studied
computable clinical guidelines representations (GLIF) and ontology-based
medical decision support. 

I'm very excited to start working with the HCLS interest group, as a doctor
I think this might be a great chance to make a difference in the future
biomedical research and patient care and I look forward to be there.

 

 

 

Few lines from my bio:

 

Dr. Zaccagnini holds a Master's degree in Biomedical Informatics from
Harvard-MIT (Health Sciences and Technology Division), a residency in
Vascular Surgery from University of Rome where he also took his medical
degree

He published internationally on various medical and medical informatics
journals and has been grated with two national academic awards.
