SWAN Project

Semantic Web Applications
in Neuromedicine!

SWAN (Semantic Web Applications in Neuromedicine) is a project to develop knowledge bases for the neurodegenerative disease research communities, using the energy and self-organization of that community enabled by Semantic Web technology. Created in collaboration with the Alzforum and other partners. Read more about the SWAN project here.

Mission

SWAN - Semantic Web Applications in Neuromedicine - is a project to develop a collaborative knowledgebase of hypotheses, theory, evidence and discussion in neuromedicine, which can facilitate knowledge sharing and discovery among researchers. Our goal is to accelerate the development, analysis and testing of disease hypotheses that may lead to more effective drug discovery and development for neurodegenerative disorders.
