  1. Researchers use animal studies to better understand human diseases. In recent years, large-scale phenotype studies such as Phenoscape and EuroPhenome have been initiated to identify genetic causes of a species...

    Authors: Anika Oellrich, Georgios V Gkoutos, Robert Hoehndorf and Dietrich Rebholz-Schuhmann
    Citation: Journal of Biomedical Semantics 2012 3(Suppl 2):S1
  2. Ontology Design Patterns (ODPs) are representational artifacts devised to offer solutions for recurring ontology design problems. They promise to enhance the ontology building process in terms of flexibility, ...

    Authors: Djamila Seddig-Raufie, Ludger Jansen, Daniel Schober, Martin Boeker, Niels Grewe and Stefan Schulz
    Citation: Journal of Biomedical Semantics 2012 3(Suppl 2):S2
  3. Although policy providers have outlined minimal metadata guidelines and naming conventions, ontologies of today still display inter- and intra-ontology heterogeneities in class labelling schemes and metadata c...

    Authors: Daniel Schober, Ilinca Tudose, Vojtech Svatek and Martin Boeker
    Citation: Journal of Biomedical Semantics 2012 3(Suppl 2):S4
  4. Phenotype ontologies are used in species-specific databases for the annotation of mutagenesis experiments and to characterize human diseases. The Entity-Quality (EQ) formalism is a means to describe complex ph...

    Authors: Frank Loebe, Frank Stumpf, Robert Hoehndorf and Heinrich Herre
    Citation: Journal of Biomedical Semantics 2012 3(Suppl 2):S5
  5. Despite the high coverage of biomedical ontologies, very few sound definitions of death can be found. Nevertheless, this concept has its relevance in epidemiology, such as for data integration within mortality...

    Authors: Filipe Santana, Fred Freitas, Roberta Fernandes, Zulma Medeiros and Daniel Schober
    Citation: Journal of Biomedical Semantics 2012 3(Suppl 2):S7
  6. The concept of a mechanism has become a standard proposal for explanations in biology. It has been claimed that mechanistic explanations are appropriate for systems biology, because they occupy a middle ground...
