                      ------------------    (05)

  Fourth Workshop of 
         Ontologies in Biomedicine and Life Sciences (OBML 2012)    (06)


Goals of OBML
-------------    (07)

The workshop series on "Ontologies in Biomedicine and Life Sciences"
(OBML workshop) was initiated by the working group for OBML of the
German Society for Computer Science in 2009. The OBML workshop aims to
bring together scientists who are working on all areas of ontologies
applied to biomedicine and the life sciences to exchange ideas,
discuss new results, start collaborations and to initiate new
projects. The OBML workshop is held annually and deals with all
aspects of biomedical ontologies as well as additional "hot" topics.    (08)

This year's "hot" topic is the representation of physiology.
Physiology is the science of the functions and functionings of
biological systems, and significant resources have been invested in
biology and medicine to describe and simulate physiological processes.
In particular, researchers in systems biology and systems medicine
have generated a large number of computational models to predict the
outcome of physiological processes on a sub-cellular, cellular, tissue
and organ-level scale, and projects such as the Virtual Physiological
Human aim to extend this work further and create a computational model
of human physiology. While ontologies are now widely applied to
integrate biomedical data in many domains, the complexity of the
physiology domain has limited the success of ontologies so far.    (09)
