POSTPONED: IDSAI Seminar: Dr. Pier Luigi Buttigieg

His work fo­cuses on the com­bin­a­tion of se­mantics, bioin­form­at­ics, and data ana­lysis in aid of mean­ing­fully mo­bil­ising eco­lo­gical data and de­tect­ing struc­ture in this com­plex and plastic con­text.
He applies om­ics-fo­cused bioin­form­at­ics and mul­tivari­ate stat­ist­ics to the di­verse data sets de­rived from mi­cro­bial eco­logy in­vest­ig­a­tions. He also de­velops re­sources to as­sist mi­cro­bial eco­lo­gists in learn­ing and ef­fect­ively us­ing these tech­niques.

Con­cur­rently, he re­searches en­vir­on­mental se­mantics and leads the En­vir­on­ment On­to­logy in sup­port of se­mantic­ally con­sist­ent data stand­ard­isa­tion across and bey­ond the life sci­ences. He is also co-lead­ing the Sus­tain­able De­vel­op­ment Goals In­ter­face On­to­logy to bet­ter link sci­entific out­put to so­ci­etal goals.
