Synthetic Biology02:55

Synthetic Biology

Synthetic biology is an interdisciplinary science that involves using principles from disciplines such as engineering, molecular biology, cell biology, and systems biology. It involves remodeling existing organisms from nature or constructing completely new synthetic organisms for applications such as protein or enzyme production, bioremediation, value-added macromolecule production, and the addition of desirable traits to crops, to name a few.

Ethics and Bioethics01:22

Ethics and Bioethics

Ethics is a philosophical study of moral actions. Ethics attempts to determine what is valuable for individuals and society. It examines the rational justification of moral judgments and analyzes what is morally just, fair, and right. Bioethics is a sub-discipline of applied ethics that analyzes the philosophical, social, and legal issues in life sciences and medicine. Ethical theories serve as a foundation for decision-making and represent the viewpoints from which people seek direction. They...
Genomics02:02

Genomics

Genomics is the science of genomes: it is the study of all the genetic material of an organism. In humans, the genome consists of information carried in 23 pairs of chromosomes in the nucleus, as well as mitochondrial DNA. In genomics, both coding and non-coding DNA is sequenced and analyzed. Genomics allows a better understanding of all living things, their evolution, and their diversity. It has a myriad of uses: for example, to build phylogenetic trees, to improve productivity and...
Anatomical Terminology01:20

Anatomical Terminology

Knowledge of anatomy is essential to understand human biology and medicine. Anatomists and health care professionals use standard terminology to describe the human body with more precision and no ambiguity. Anatomical terms have mostly Greek and Latin-derived roots. Because these languages are rarely used in conversation, the meaning of words remains the same. Each term is made up of a root in between the prefixes and suffixes. The root of a term often refers to an organ, tissue, or condition,...
Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System01:29

Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.

Genome Annotation and Assembly03:36

Genome Annotation and Assembly

The genome refers to all of the genetic material in an organism. It can range from a few million base pairs in microbial cells to several billion base pairs in many eukaryotic organisms. Genome assembly refers to the process of taking the DNA sequencing data and putting it all back together in a correct order to create a close representation of the original genome. This is followed by the identification of functional elements on the newly assembled genome, a process called genome annotation.

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical informatics
  • Ontology engineering
  • Collaborative software development

Background:

  • Biomedical ontologies are crucial for data integration and knowledge representation.
  • The increasing scale of ontologies necessitates community-driven development approaches.
  • Existing ontology development tools often lack robust support for collaborative workflows.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce Collaborative Protégé, a prototype tool for community-based ontology development.
  • To enhance collaboration through integrated discussions, chats, and change annotations.
  • To evaluate the tool's effectiveness in a practical biomedical context.

Main Methods:

  • Development of the Collaborative Protégé software prototype.
  • Integration of communication features (discussions, chats) with ontology editing.
  • Implementation of change annotation functionalities.
  • Evaluation using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Thesaurus development as a case study.

Main Results:

  • Collaborative Protégé effectively supports community-based ontology development.
  • Users found the integrated discussion features valuable for collaborative decision-making.
  • The tool facilitated the recording of design rationale and discussion history.
  • The NCI Thesaurus development demonstrated the practical utility of the prototype.

Conclusions:

  • Collaborative Protégé is a promising tool for managing large-scale, community-developed biomedical ontologies.
  • Integrated communication and annotation features improve the efficiency and transparency of collaborative ontology engineering.
  • The tool's successful evaluation suggests its potential for broader adoption in biomedical informatics projects.
