3rd Disease Maps Community Meeting (DMCM2018)

Objectives

The objective of the 3rd DMCM is to consolidate efforts around the disease map projects and extend the Disease Maps Community. The 3rd DMCM will expose progress of the projects from the Disease Maps Community and beyond. The representative examples of network maps generation, their applications for disease data analysis, disease comorbidity, drug response prediction, advances in tools development and modelling approaches will be presented.

Topics

Among others, the following topics will be discussed: biocuration of prior knowledge related to different human diseases; creation and maintenance of disease network maps following common standards; sharing sub-maps with mechanisms implemented into different human diseases; providing technical solutions for network maps complexity management, mathematical modelling of maps and web-tools for explorations in maps. Topic-specific roundtable discussions will be organised to identify bottleneck problems and ways to overcome them.
