The Ontology of Science

Focuses on the ontology of biology, specifically on the ontology of the Gene Ontology in the wake of the Human Genome Project, and on the issue of multi-level ontology -- from molecules to cells to organisms, and from functions at the molecular level to downstream biological processes.

Excellent lecture! Thank you. I'm curious about the goal of getting manufacturers of biomedical experimental equipment to use OBI when they were publishing their catalogues - perhaps they were skittish because they saw their manufacturing as not so much a biomedical investigation so much as perhaps a commercial manufacturing process? That is, they didn't want to feel constrained by OBI but would have perhaps been more onboard with the idea if another ontology was used and/or included in the process, such as an ontology specific to manufacturing or industrial processes or perhaps commercial entities?
