International experts in the field of health information semantics came together for a three-day in-depth workshop to explore best practices in how to standardise the meaning of clinical information within electronic health records.

SWAT4LS is a workshop that provides a venue to present and discuss benefits and limits of the adoption of Web based information systems and Semantic technologies in biomedical informatics and computational biology.

Semantic interoperability (SIOP) is a critical need to support the widespread sharing of electronic health records, and their safe interpretation. Therefor achieving SIOP of electronic health information is also a key ambition of projects funded by the European Commission. A recent business modeling workshop has analyzed how a European Virtual Organisation can help focus current development efforts in this field.

The next SemanticHealthNet consortium meeting will take place on 11 and 12 September 2013, in Munich. Like the previous consortium meeting organized in Ghent (September 2012), European experts will also be invited. One of the goals is to present and discuss the current project results interactively with the experts, representing different domains: professional associations, governance , industry, ontology, professional and related R&D Projects.
