Data driven semantic integration of translational lung cancer research at MDAnderson Cancer Center.
The Lung Cancer SPORE at University Texas MDAnderson Cancer Center and Southwestern Medical School requires the integration of heterogeneous multi-institutional sources comprising both molecular and clinical data. In this report we describe a novel method for converging domain specific experimental ontologies that relies on propagating permissions in Resource Description Framework triplets rather than the single access point of conventional relational databases. We address this challenge by combining semantic web data reposition with code distribution.
