The VIVO Conference This is NOT the last time VIVO Updates will tell you about the VIVO Conference. Next week is the last VIVO Updates before the conference. If you haven't made plans, you still have a 10 days! See http://vivoconference.org Weill Cornell Medicine has done a tremendous job with local arrangements – we have an exciting line-up of workshops, an opening reception at the Skylight Lounge, fabulous keynotes and invited speakers, tons of contributed work showing VIVO at various institutions, problems being solved, work for the future, Posters, panels, and of course, an opportunity to discuss VIVO with practitioners from around the world. It's going to be a great time and I hope to meet you and discuss VIVO with you.
Ontology Improvements The Ontology Improvement Task Force will have its next meeting Monday July 31, at 10 AM US Eastern. The group has been defining a new ontology improvement process for tracking issues, working issues, and insuring that ontology improvements are represented in versions of the released VIVO software – we also expect to be able to update the ontology without needing to update the software. You can find the draft ontology improvement process, available for comment, here: https://goo.gl/6ZYqry
One feature of the ontology improvement process is the concept of a public comment
