Description
Summary:Abstract Standardization of omics data drives FAIR data practices through community-built genomic data standards and biomedical ontologies. Use of standards has progressed from a foreign concept to a sought-after solution, moving from efforts to coordinate data within individual research projects to research communities coming together to identify solutions to common challenges. Today we are seeing the benefits of this multidecade groundswell to coordinate, exchange, and reuse data; to compare data across studies; and to integrate data across previously siloed resources.
