Research direction

The issue proposes adding the ontology term “cyst” with the supplied definition and links to a list of potential child types. No file or test is named, so first inspect the repository’s ontology contribution format and existing anatomy terms. Done means the cyst term and definition are represented consistently with the project’s data.
