Hi All,
I'd been meaning to send this link around (in case it's not already
been distributed to the list):

You'll see Tim B-L's interview near the top of the list. Obviously,
most on this list "get it" - but I thought it was useful to hear TBL
communicate his vision of some of the specific gains he sees SemWeb
Tech providing to the HCLS space, and the immediate value that
functionality can provide to society.
There is also a very interesting piece from Susan Lundquist et al
(director of the Whitehead Institute at MIT) on high-throughput
techniques for uncovering pharmaceutical agents that might act either
to prevent or reverse protein mis-folding. In additional to being a
rapidly growing dataset ripe for RDF expression, it's a scientific
topic of direct importance to the HCLS IG demo Use Cases.
