Prof. Eva Blomqvist is currently (since December 2019) employed as an Associate Professor (Bitr. Professor) in Computer Science in the KMACS lab (HCS division) at the Department of Computer and Information Science, Linköping University. Since 2017, she has also held the title of Docent in computer science. Prof. Blomqvist’s main research focus is on applied and industry-relevant research in the area of the Semantic Web and AI. In particular, the focus is on knowledge representation, such as ontologies and knowledge graphs, ontology-based applications, and ontology engineering. An important concept throughout her research work has been the notion of ontology design patterns, which was first developed and explored during her PhD. In addition to her research work, Prof. Blomqvist is very active in the Semantic Web community, serving on editorial boards and as a reviewer, as well as being the chair of several international conferences and workshops (e.g., general chair of ESWC 2017 and scientific program co-chair of ISWC2021). She has edited around 20 collections of scientific articles. She has been the chair of the Association for Ontology Design and Patterns since 2016 and is a member of the board of the Swedish AI Society and the department board at the Computer and Information Science Department at Linköping University. At the university, she is also involved in teaching and has, among other things, developed several PhD courses on Semantic Web technologies.
