Index diseases using ontologies

    • Issues closed as MONARCH has transitioned from UCSD services

    Description

      We need to use ontology classes from disease ontology(ies) to attach to records in the NIF index. E.g. parkinson's or leukemia in clinicialtrials.gov. Currently NIF_Dysfunction is used, which has the former but not the latter.

      Possible sub-tasks

      • evaluate existing vocabularies/indexes w.r.t use cases (DO, MESH, OMIM, Orphanet, SNOMED, NCIt, NIF_Dysfunction)
      • create recommendation; may be one of
      • single existing resource
      • multiple existing resources joined by owl equivalence and subclass axioms
      • it's all hopeless; use free text
      • ...
      • create and maintain necessary ontology infrastructure
