SPARC Anatomical Working Group (SAWG) Members
Contributing experts:
Professor Emeritus, Neurological Surgery, University of California, San Francisco
Dr. Bresnahan's research focuses on understanding the biological underpinnings of neurotrauma, particularly spinal cord injury, with the goal of improving recovery for individuals who suffer damage to the nervous system. Her laboratory has developed a number of models to study cellular systems and behavioral changes that occur as a consequence of injury.
Samuel W. Thayer Professor of Neurological Sciences, University of Vermont
Dr. Mawe's research focuses on the neurobiology of GI function in health and disease states and uses a variety of experimental approaches including electrophysiology, calcium imaging, immunocytochemistry and molecular biology. He is actively involved in teaching anatomy, physiology and comparative neurobiology to undergraduates, graduate students, medical students, and residents.
Additional members:
Associate Professor, The University of Auckland - New Zealand
Dr. de Bono research focuses on developing the requisite computational infrastructure for the ontology-based annotation, sharing and inferencing of physiology-related semantic metadata. He has developed the ApiNATOMY approach to ontology visualisation in support of more effective knowledge management by the physiology and pharmaceutical research communities.
Professor Emeritus of Neuroscience, University of California - San Diego
Dr. Martone research focuses on building ontologies for neuroscience for data integration. She served as the Director of Biological Sciences for Hypothesis, a technology non-profit developing an open annotation layer for the web (2015-2018) and founded SciCrunch, a technology start up based on technologies developed by NIF and dkNET. She currently serves as Chief Scientific Officer of SciCrunch.
SPARC K-Core project manager, Informed Minds Inc., Walnut Creek
Dr. Boline draws on her neurophysiology research background to facilitate and manage complex biological informatics projects. She is the founder of Informed Minds Inc. and acts as the K-Core project manager.
