Disease maps: building and analysing graphical models of
biomedical knowledge
Disease maps encode knowledge about molecular pathophysiology in
both visual and computational format, helping interdisciplinary
exchange between bench scientists, clinical researchers and
bioinformaticians. In this talk I’ll introduce the concept based
on the example of Parkinson’s disease map and demonstrate it as a
tool for visual exploration, analytics and investigating complex
data. Then, I’ll describe the evolution of the approach and how it
was picked up by a broader research community leading to a
large-scale effort to build the COVID-19 Disease Map.
