Julia Gil is an ontology expert with 11 years of experience applying knowledge representation and Semantic Web technologies across academia, pharma, and industry. Currently at BASF, she builds and evangelizes knowledge-graph solutions that bridge technical teams and domain stakeholders, with prior roles delivering PoCs and onboarding materials for Boehringer Ingelheim. Her background includes a PhD-focused research trajectory in Linguistic Linked Data, co-chairing W3C Ontology-Lexica efforts and modelling multilingual lexicographic resources as RDF. She combines hands-on engineering (SPARQL, RDF/OWL, Python, Java, Docker) with strong dissemination skills—tutorials, video scripts and policy briefs—to accelerate adoption of standards. Julia has led large collaborative working groups and translated academic models into production-friendly APIs and tooling, an uncommon mix that helps turn scholarly standards into operational knowledge assets. Based in Madrid, she brings both research rigor and pragmatic delivery to cross-disciplinary data challenges.
