Statement of Purpose

Featuring a large number of scientific articles related to COVID-19, CORD-19 is a valuable resource that facilitates the research study of COVID-19 and related coronaviruses. CORD-19-on-FHIR is a Linked Data version of CORD-19. It is represented in the RDF format and provides an easy way to extract co-occurred associations (e.g., of chemicals, mutations, etc).

In this study, we applied an existing network embeddings model (node2vec) over a co-occurrence network derived from CORD-19-on-FHIR, in order to facilitate association detection and knowledge discovery for COVID-19 and related coronavirus infectious diseases.

Target Audience

The target audience for this activity is professionals and students interested in biomedical and health informatics.

Learning Objectives

The general learning objective for all of the JAMIA Journal Club webinars is that participants will

  • Use a critical appraisal process to assess article validity and to gauge article findings' relevance to practice

After this live activity, the participant should be better able to:

  • Identify and discuss the general process of constructing a co-occurrence network (in this case, using CORD-19-on-FHIR)
  • Apply node2vec to generate co-occurrence network embeddings
  • Demonstrate results with a web-based user-friendly tools

Commercial Support

No commercial support was received for this activity.
