Neat stuff, Alejandro. Can I also suggest considering dbpedia/freebase data as something to evaluate? It's very broad, and you'd certainly rate a lot of it as lower quality than curated, professional data sets, but an extra 9,500 or so concepts *with the links already curated to dbpedia and the rest of the linked data cloud* certainly couldn't hurt. Example data @ http://www.freebase.com/view/medicine/disease ; and I'm sure you could pull the same kind of thing out of dbpedia easily enough.
Though I'm not going to be able to contribute much to your data modelling beyond link-all-the-things-to-the-other-things; nor am I going to be much help in domain expertise, is there any way I can help - in areas of data capture via frontend tools, building QA games, or otherwise focusing on the tools that can work with the data? For example, the concept description alludes to simplistic diagnosis checklists - I'd be happy to contribute to a proof of concept application that consumes the data set and presents a set of concepts for further exploration. > [1] http://openddx.net/ > [2] > https://docs.google.com/document/d/1T05Ao-7uVtOW0rjn_qZray9DK5VtJiIoZ7aU7Q6tA8k/edit > [3] http://camwebb.info/blog/2012-03-14/ > [4] http://lists.openddx.net/listinfo.cgi/oddx-design-openddx.net > > -- > Dr. Alejandro Rodríguez González - PhD > > Bioinformatics at Centre for Plant Biotechnology and Genomics UPM-INIA > Polytechnic University of Madrid > http://www.alejandrorg.com > Phone: +34 914524900 .
