Data and biomaterial from a study investigating how both genetic and environmental effects influence health and behavior in children and adolescents. In this study parents to all Swedish twins turning 9 or 12 years are asked to complete a telephone interview concerning the health and behavior of their twins. The interview screens for several different health (e.g., asthma, allergies, diabetes) and behavior (e.g., attention, social interaction) problems. Some of the families will be followed up with additional questionnaires, as well as with genotyping and clinical interviews. The response frequency of the telephone interview is 80%. By November 2008, 7408 interviews had taken place. Types of samples * Saliva alt. EDTA whole blood * DNA Number of sample donors: 10 721 (June 2010)

The DistiLD database aims to increase the usage of existing genome-wide association studies (GWAS) results by making it easy to query and visualize disease-associated SNPs and genes in their chromosomal context. The database performs three important tasks: # published GWAS are collected from several sources and linked to standardized, international disease codes ICD10 codes) # data from the International HapMap Project are analyzed to define linkage disequilibrium (LD) blocks onto which SNPs and genes are mapped # the web interface makes it easy to query and visualize disease-associated SNPs and genes within LD blocks. Users can query the database by diseases, SNPs or genes. No matter which of the three query modes was used, an intermediate page will be shown listing all the studies that matched the search with a link to the corresponding publication. The user can select either all studies related to a certain disease or one specific study for which to view the related LD blocks. The DistiLD resource integrates information on: * Associations between Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) and diseases from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) * Links between SNPs and genes based on linkage disequilibrium (LD) data from HapMap For convenience, we provide the complete datasets as two (zipped) tab-delimited files. The first file contains GWAS results mapped to LD blocks. The second file contains all SNPs and genes assigned to each LD block.

Project to addresses challenges associated with the preservation of scientific experiments in data-intensive science, including: * The definition of models to describe, in a standard way, scientific experiments by means of workflow-centric Research Objects, which comprise scientific workflows, the provenance of their executions, interconnections between workflows and related resources (e.g., datasets, publications, etc.), and social aspects related to such scientific experiments. * The collection of best practices for the creation and management of Research Objects. * The analysis and management of decay in scientific workflows. To address these challenges they are creating an architecture and tooling for the access, manipulation, sharing, reuse and evolution of Research Objects in a range of disciplines. This will result into the next generation RO-enabled myExperiment.

A lightweight provenance vocabulary to provide terms to enable practitioners of data publishing to publish their data responsibly. It is closely based on the community provenance data model, the Open Provenance Model (OPM). Since release 1.0 OPMV becomes a profile of OPM. OPMV can be used together with other provenance-related RDF/OWL vocabularies/ontologies, such as Dublin Core, FOAF, the Changeset Vocabulary, and the Provenance Vocabulary. As being grounded on OPM, the OPMV aims to assist the interoperability between provenance information on the Semantic Web. The Open Provenance Model Vocabulary is defined as an OWL-DL ontology and it is partitioned into a core ontology and supplementary modules. In order to avoid making the core ontology too complex, the core module only implements structures defined in OPM and the supplementary modules provide less frequently used terms and a broad range of specializations of the core terms. * Classes: Agent, Artifact, Process * Properties: used, wasControlledBy, wasDerivedFrom, wasEncodedBy, wasEndedAt, wasGeneratedAt, wasGeneratedBy, wasPerformedAt, wasPerformedBy, wasStartedAt, wasTriggeredBy, wasUsedAt

Database of biomedical literature citations, harvested from the reference lists of all open access articles in PubMed Central that reference ~20% of all PubMed Central papers (approx. 3.4 million papers), including all the highly cited papers in every biomedical field. All the data are freely available for download and reuse. The web site allows these bibliographic records and citations to be browsed, individual articles to be selected, and its citation network to be visualized in a variety of displays. Details of each selected reference, and the data and diagrams for its citation network, may be downloaded in a variety of formats, while the entire Open Citations Corpus can be downloaded from our source data page in several formats including RDF and BibJSON. Their aim for the future is to work with publishers to make available the reference lists from many more current and recent journal articles, starting with the biomedical literature, and to make the citations contained within them available as Open Linked Data in the manner demonstrated by the existing exemplar data available here.

Format for creating, finding, using and citing nanopublications. A nanopublication has two basic elements: * The Assertion: An assertion is a minimal unit of thought, expressing a relationship between two concepts (called the Subject and the Object) using a third concept (called the Predicate). * The Provenance: This is metadata providing some context about the assertion. Provenance means, ''''how this came to be'''' and includes Supporting metadata (like methods) and Attribution metadata (such as authors, institutions, time-stamps, grants, links to DOIs, URLs). Nanopublications can be serialized using existing ontologies and RDF, allowing nanopublications to be machine readable and opening the door to universal interoperability. In turn, this allows extremely large, heterogeneous and decentralized data to be analyzed for the discovery of new associations that would otherwise be beyond the capacity of human reasoning. Nanopublication infrastructure is administered by the Concept Web Alliance, and are based on open standards. They anticipate the community-driven evolution of nanopublication formats to fit the changing needs of authors and publishers.

Data resource catalog that collates metadata on bioinformatics Web-based data resources including databases, ontologies, taxonomies and catalogues. An entry includes information such as resource identifier(s), name, description and URL. ''''Query'''' lines are defined for each resource that describe what type(s) of data are available, in what format, how (by what identifier) the data can be retrieved and from where (URL). DRCAT was developed to provide more extensive data integration for EMBOSS, but it has many applications beyond EMBOSS. DRCAT entries (including ''''Query'''' lines) are annotated with terms from the EDAM ontology of common bioinformatics concepts.

An ontology to describe Dictyostelium where the structural makeup of Dictyostelium and its composing parts including the different cell types, throughout its life cycle is defined. There are two main goals for this new tool: (1) promote the consistent annotation of Dictyostelium-specific events, such as phenotypes (already in use), and in the future, of gene expression information; and (2) encourage researchers to use the same terms with the same intended meaning. To this end, all terms are defined. The complete ontology can be browsed using EBI''s ontology browser tool. (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ontology-lookup/browse.do?ontName=DDANAT)
