PHIDIAS

To better study host-pathogen interactions, we developed PHIDIAS, the most comprehesenive host-pathogen interaction database focusing on human and animal pathogens. As part of PHIDIAS, we have developed Victors, a comprehensive knowledge base of more than 3,000 virulence factors in >120 human and animal pathogens. We have also developed an Ontology of Host-Pathogen Interactions (OHPI) to logically represent the virulence factors and their interactions with the hosts... Briefly, our group has now focused on computational medicine and bioinformatics research, with primary research interests in the areas of microbiology, vaccinology, nephrology, ontology, literature mining, and machine learning. Our primary scientific research domains are microbiology, vaccinology, and nephrology. Our primary technical research domains are ontology, semantic web, literature mining, and mechine learning; these technical domains can all be classified under artificial intelligence (AI)... Our group has now..
