Open Biomedical Ontology Framework

The Open Biomedical Ontology (OBO) Framework is a collection of standardized terms and relationships used to organize and share biological and medical knowledge. It provides a common language for scientists to describe genes, diseases, cells, and other biological concepts consistently across research and databases. This helps improve data integration, searchability, and understanding in biomedical research. By using shared definitions and structures, the OBO Framework facilitates collaboration and advances in areas like genomics, medicine, and bioinformatics.
