BioRDF Activities • Explore the effectiveness of current tools for making data available as RDF/OWL • Build a life sciences demo that spans from bench to bedside using RDF/OWL to help scientist better understand the value of the Semantic Web • Document our finding to help accelerate the adoption of the Semantic Web by others http://esw.w3.org/topic/HCLSIG_BioRDF_Subgroup
