The meeting includes invited talks, presentations of peerreviewed contributed papers, as well as poster session. BioLINK SIG Linking Literature, Information and Knowledge for Biology The Annual Meeting of The ISMB BioLINK Special Interest Group on Text Data Mining In Association with ISMB Vienna, Austria 19, With the increasing availability of textual information related to biology including Medline abstracts and fulltext journal articles, the field of biomedical text mining has been rapidly maturing.

We anticipate fruitful workshop that will facilitate discussion and exchange of ideas, by bringing researchers applying natural language processing, ontologies, text mining, information extraction and retrieval in the biomedical domain, together with scientists from bioinformatics and biology.

The meeting includes invited talks, presentations of peerreviewed contributed papers, as well as the development of future ones to expedite progress in the interdisciplinary research field of biomedical textmining.

Information about last years meeting, which was held jointly with the BioOntologies SIG, can be found on the JBB06 web site. It will focus on recent assessments, on standards for annotation both in biological databases and in biomedical text corpora, and on new tools for biomedical text mining.

Information about last years meeting, which was held jointly with the BioOntologies SIG, can be found on the JBB06 web site. It is concerned with using techniques from natural language processing, information extraction and information retrieval to automate knowledge discovery from biomedical text. It will focus on recent assessments, on standards for annotation both in biological databases and in biomedical text corpora, and on new tools for biomedical text mining.

Page last updated by James Gray. The SIG solicits papers and talks that discuss text mining tools and their application to biomedical research and to biological database curation, examine the interrelations between database curation tasks and text mining, and the utility of existing resources as well as poster session. We anticipate fruitful workshop that will facilitate discussion and exchange of ideas, by bringing researchers applying natural language processing, information extraction and information retrieval to automate knowledge discovery from biomedical text.
