GECKO

The Genomics Cohorts Knowledge Ontology (GECKO) is an ontology to represent genomics cohort attributes. The GECKO is maintained by the CINECA project, and standardises attributes commonly used for genomics cohort description as well as individual-level data items. A series of tools is being developed to enable automated generation of harmonised data files based on a JSON schema mapping file. The ontology is publicly available and can be accessed through various ontology repositories and tools, such as the Ontology Lookup Service and BioPortal.
