38.  Target / pathway hypotheses will be linked to:  Pathway & target relation to disease,  Target selection criteria,  Validation assays and criteria,  Experiment (assay) provenance,  Experimental data and computations,  Scientist remarks, findings and discussion.  Start as a relatively simple model and extend

39.  Hypotheses of therapeutic action for compounds and scaffolds will be linked to  Hypothesis / results for individual assays,  Experiment (assay) provenance,  Experimental data,  Group annotation,  Internal databases etc.  Start as a relatively simple model and extend

41. Information ecosystem

42.  Research reproducibility  Linking data to documents at time of publications  Citation of reagents, instruments, code, protocols  Bibliographies and citation networks  Bibliographic records and citations are metadata  Personal annotations  Selective sharing and virtual communities  Database annotation  Biomedical ontology database curation projects

43.  What is NASA ADS?  Web database comprising over 8 million astronomy and physics papers  Full-text for over 880K articles, including all major astronomy journals  NASA ADS semantic annotation requirements  Astronomical objects by catalog ID  Specific telescope, type of telescope, wavelength  Investigators  Grant funding sources

44.  Curing complex medical disorders goes hand in hand with next-gen biomedical communications  Web 3.0 provides the technology framework  Semantic annotation, hypothesis management, nanopubs: tools for next-gen biomed comms.  Requires / enables international collaborations of biomedical researchers and informaticians.  Open enterprise model with semantic metadata.

46. Whereas King Ptolemy, living forever, the Manifest God whose excellence is fine, son of King Ptolemy and Queen Arsinoe, the Father- loving Gods, is wont to do many favours for the temples of Egypt and for all those who are subject to his kingship, he being a god… English translation by R.S.
