  1. Semantics-Enabled Proactive and Targeted Dissemination of New Medical Knowledge Mustafa Nural, AsmitaRahman, PriyaWadrevu, ChinmayMurugkar I. Budak. Arpinar, LaksmishRamaswamy Computer Science Department The University of Georgia • Motivating Scenario • Mr. Smith has a heart attack history. He currently uses drugs Plavix and Prilosec for reducing heart attack risk and acid reflux. A recent discovery shows using two drugs together is actually doubling the risk of recurring heart attack. Mr. Smith’s doctor should be immediately notified to change the treatment regimen. • Challenges • Traditional information dissemination methods carry a significant delay. Of propagation • Useful information may be lost due to overload • Searching thorough medical records with each finding is not applicable • Approach • Process Medical Records & Literature using a Domain Ontology • Match & Rank potential findings with records • Present the results to the physician • Get feedback & update system • Research Challenges • Semantic Processing of EMRs & Medical Literature • Match-making between EMRs and Scientific Literature • Clustering of EMRs & Query Generation for Scalability Processing of the Documents
