Description

As mentioned in a separate issue, the NCI Cancer Research Data Commons (CRDC) Program (https://datacommons.cancer.gov/) is developing data standards for submitting data to the CRDC ecosystem. As part of this effort, the CRDC Data Standards Service (DSS) Team is identifying industry standards that can be leveraged for this harmonization and standardization effort.

In the process of harmonizing the Specimen Anatomic Site data element across multiple repositories, we came across a few questions, which we have documented in Column F of the attached file.

Research direction

Read the issue and inspect Column F of the attached DSS Questions and Concerns for Specimen Anatomic Site VVs.xlsx. Compare the questions with Uberon's existing specimen anatomic site terms and the CRDC harmonization context; done would require an agreed resolution and any resulting ontology content changes, but the issue does not specify them.
