Speaking the Same Language
NCI Thesaurus and the Gene Ontology have been reviewed and accepted as vocabulary standards by the Vocabularies and Common Data Elements (VCDE) Workspace and will be forwarded in early May to the caBIG™ community for comment. These vocabularies will facilitate improved data sharing between many caBIG™ applications. (Overviews of the VCDE Workspace are available at the caBIG™ Community Website and Gforge Websites).
