ERO models research resources such instruments. protocols, reagents, animal models and biospecimens. It was developed in the context of the eagle-i project. |
| Environmental and Exposures Ontology |
ECTO |
The purpose of ECTO is to create compositional classes that assemble existing OBO ontologies such as ExO, CHEBI and ENVO to make ready-made precomposed classes for use in describing: |
| Genotype Ontology |
GENO |
An integrated ontology for representing the genetic variations described in genotypes, and their causal relationships to phenotype and diseases. |
| Human Phenotype Ontology |
HPO |
HPO provides a standardized vocabulary of phenotypic abnormalities encountered in human disease. Each term in the HPO describes a phenotypic abnormality |

ICD-9, ICD-10, ICD-11 |
A medical classification list by the World Health Organization (WHO) that contains codes for diseases, signs and symptoms, abnormal findings, complaints, social circumstances, and external causes of injury or diseases. |
| International Classification of Diseases for Oncology |
ICD-O |
A domain-specific extension of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems for tumor diseases. |
| Integrated Semantic Framework |
ISF |
The VIVO-ISF ontology provide a set of types (classes) and relationships (properties) to represent researchers and the full context in which they work. |

MEDDRA |
MedDRA is an international medical terminology with an emphasis on use for data entry, retrieval, analysis, and display. |
| Mondo Disease Ontology |
Mondo |
Mondo is a disease ontology that represents disease terminology across species. It is a semi-automatically constructed ontology that merges in multiple disease resources to yield a coherent merged ontology. |
| NCBI Taxonomy |
NCBI Taxon |
The NCBI Taxonomy Database is a curated classification and nomenclature for all of the organisms in the public sequence databases. |
| National Cancer Institute Thesaurus |
NCIT |
A vocabulary for clinical care, translational and basic research, and public information and administrative activities. |

OBI |
OBI is an ontology of investigations, the protocols and instrumentation used, the material used, the data generated and the types of analysis performed on it. |
| Protein Ontology |
PRO |
PRO provides an ontological representation of protein-related entities by explicitly defining them and showing the relationships between them. |
| Uber Anatomy Ontology |
Uberon |
Uberon is an integrated cross-species anatomy ontology representing a variety of entities classified according to traditional anatomical criteria such as structure, function and developmental lineage. |
| UniProt |
|
The mission of UniProt is to provide the scientific community with a comprehensive, high-quality and freely accessible resource of protein sequence and functional information. |
