Frequently Asked Questions About Monarch Initiative
FAQPage SchemaWhat specific tasks can researchers perform using these capabilities?▼
Researchers can validate disease issues, curate cancer entries with genetic drivers, decompose microbiome pathophysiology into graph nodes, and convert OHDSI cohort data into standardized disorder definitions. These functions ensure high-quality, ontology-bound data entry for complex biomedical knowledge bases.
Who is the target persona for these technical capabilities?▼
The primary users are bioinformaticians, clinical researchers, and ontology engineers tasked with maintaining large-scale disease knowledge bases. These professionals utilize these functions to ensure schema compliance, evidence-based validation, and taxonomic accuracy across cross-species disorder datasets.
What are the prerequisites for implementing these disease curation functions?▼
Implementation requires access to the dismech knowledge base schema and valid credentials for GitHub repository interaction. Users must ensure their input data, such as OHDSI JSON or gene lists, is formatted correctly to align with the required ontology bindings and YAML structure.
