<p><font size=3 face=Arial><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:

information systems play a key role in biomedical information exchange and
integration. At the same time, the variety and complexity of biomedical
information call for the adoption of semantic-based solutions. The Semantic Web
provides a set of technologies and standards that are key to support semantic
markup, ontology development, distributed information resources and
collaborative social environments. Altogether the adoption of the web-based
semantic-enabled technologies in the Life Sciences has potential impact on the
future of publishing, biological research and medicine. This workshop will
provide a venue to present and discuss benefits and limits of the adoption of
these technologies and tools in biomedical informatics and computational
biology. It will showcase experiences, information resources, tools development
and applications. It will bring together researchers, both developers and
users, from the various fields of Biology, Bioinformatics and Computer Science,
to discuss goals, current limits and some real use cases for Semantic Web
technologies in Life Sciences. </span></font><span lang=EN-US><o:p></o:p></span></p>
