The first 10 years of the international coordination network for standards in systems and synthetic biology (COMBINE)

Abstract (Expand)

This paper presents a report on outcomes of the 10th Computational Modeling in Biology Network (COMBINE) meeting that was held in Heidelberg, Germany, in July of 2019. The annual event brings together … researchers, biocurators and software engineers to present recent results and discuss future work in the area of standards for systems and synthetic biology. The COMBINE initiative coordinates the development of various community standards and formats for computational models in the life sciences. Over the past 10 years, COMBINE has brought together standard communities that have further developed and harmonized their standards for better interoperability of models and data. COMBINE 2019 was co-located with a stakeholder workshop of the European EU-STANDS4PM initiative that aims at harmonized data and model standardization for in silico models in the field of personalized medicine, as well as with the FAIRDOM PALs meeting to discuss findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable (FAIR) data sharing. This report briefly describes the work discussed in invited and contributed talks as well as during breakout sessions. It also highlights recent advancements in data, model, and annotation standardization efforts. Finally, this report concludes with some challenges and opportunities that this community will face during the next 10 years.

Towards standardization guidelines for in silico approaches in personalized medicine

Abstract (Expand)

Despite the ever-progressing technological advances in producing data in health and clinical research, the generation of new knowledge for medical benefits through advanced analytics still lags behind … its full potential. Reasons for this obstacle are the inherent heterogeneity of data sources and the lack of broadly accepted standards. Further hurdles are associated with legal and ethical issues surrounding the use of personal/patient data across disciplines and borders. Consequently, there is a need for broadly applicable standards compliant with legal and ethical regulations that allow interpretation of heterogeneous health data through in silico methodologies to advance personalized medicine. To tackle these standardization challenges, the Horizon2020 Coordinating and Support Action EU-STANDS4PM initiated an EU-wide mapping process to evaluate strategies for data integration and data-driven in silico modelling approaches to develop standards, recommendations and guidelines for personalized medicine. A first step towards this goal is a broad stakeholder consultation process initiated by an EU-STANDS4PM workshop at the annual COMBINE meeting (COMBINE 2019 workshop report in same issue). This forum analysed the status quo of data and model standards and reflected on possibilities as well as challenges for cross-domain data integration to facilitate in silico modelling approaches for personalized medicine.

Proceedings of the 10th Computational Modeling in Biology Network (COMBINE) Meeting 2019

Abstract (Expand)

These are the conference proceedings of COMBINE 2019, the 10th Computational Modeling in Biology Network (COMBINE) meeting that took place in Heidelberg (Germany) from July 15th to July 19th, 2019. The …e Computational Modeling in Biology Network (COMBINE) is an initiative to coordinate the development of the various community standards and formats for computational models in the life sciences. It was created in 2010 to enable the sharing of resources, tools, and other infrastructure, and to coordinate standardization efforts for modeling in biology. COMBINE brings standard communities together around activities that are mutually beneficial. These activities include making specification documents available from a common location, providing a central point of contact, and organizing regular face-to-face meetings. To this end, the COMBINE network organizes an annual conference style meeting (the COMBINE Forum) and annual hackathon style events called HARMONY (Hackathon on Resources for Modeling in Biology), as well as tutorials and training events. At COMBINE 2019 a combination of keynote lectures, invited talks and interactive breakout discussions, as well as contributed talks, posters and lightning talks, selected from submitted abstracts, provided the basis for the meeting, offering diverse formats to exchange information, to discuss and work on interoperability problems and to demonstrate support for standards implemented in modelling tools, platforms and databases. One special focus of COMBINE 2019 was on the standardization need in systems medicine, which has been recognized as a necessity for computer-assisted personalized medicine. To direct attention to this topic, the European standardization framework for data integration and data-driven in silico models (EUSTANDS4PM) organized a workshop as part of COMBINE 2019. Also, reproducibility in modelling was a main topic, as reflected by several sessions and workshops. Besides these focus themes, also sessions, workshops and breakout discussions around single standards, their further development and their interoperability helped to advance the standardization, standing in the tradition of COMBINE.
