Dr. Das’s laboratory focuses on the advancement of model-driven architectures and Semantic Web technologies (XML, OWL, SWRL) to support temporal reasoning, data integration, and collaborative systems in health care and the life sciences.
Mark Musen’s laboratory studies components for building knowledge-based systems, controlled terminologies and ontologies, and technology for the Semantic Web. For more than two decades, Musen’s group has worked to elucidate reusable building blocks of intelligent systems, and to develop scalable computational architectures for systems with significant applications in biomedicine.
The Shah laboratory studies ontology based approaches to annotate, index, integrate and analyze diverse information types available in biomedicine for the purpose of enabling data-driven decision making in medicine and health care.
The long-term research goal of the Butte Lab is to develop bioinformatics methods in integrative biology, or reasoning over the many available genome-scale measurement and experimental modalities, applying these methods to study complex disorders in genomic medicine.
