#1: TOKeN is critical for
biomedical research
Seeding Wikidata with biomedical data
• All human, mouse genes and proteins
(~175k items)
• All FDA approved drugs (~2k items)
• All human diseases from Disease
Ontology (~7k items)
• 120 reference microbial genomes
Mitraka et al (2015) Semantic Web Applications for the Life Sciences
Burgstaller-Muelbacher et al (2016) Database
Putman et al (2016) Database
11
“Show all operons present
in Listeria monocytogenes.”
12
The Stone Soup of Knowledge…
HT: Jamie Taylor, The Stone Soup of Data, WWW2007
“Show all tyrosine kinase
inhibitors that are used to
treat hematologic cancers.”
“Show all monoclonal
antibodies used to treat
melanoma.”
“Show all human membrane
proteins associated with
colorectal cancer.”
Appealing to domain experts’ selfish motives

“Repurposing generally refers to studying
drugs that are already approved to treat one
disease or condition to see if they are safe
and effective for treating other diseases”.
