The NIF Standard Ontology (NIFSTD) is a collection of modular ontologies that provides an extensive set of terms and concepts important for the domains of neuroscience and biology, as well as the data and resources relevant for the life sciences. It is a core component of the Neuroscience Information Framework (NIF) project, a semantically enhanced portal for accessing and integrating neuroscience data, tools and information.

Open source semantic web application that enables the discovery of research and scholarship across disciplines at a particular institution and across institutions by creating a semantic cloud of information that can be searched and browsed. Participants include institutions with local installations of VIVO or those with research discovery and profiling applications that can provide semantic web-compliant data. The information accessible through the national network''''s search and browse capability will therefore reside and be controlled locally within institutional VIVOs or other semantic web applications. The VIVO ontology provides a set of types (classes) and relationships (properties) to represent researchers and the full context of their experience, outputs, interests, accomplishments, and associated institutions. https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/VIVO/VIVO-ISF+Ontology VIVO is populated with detailed profiles of faculty and researchers including information such as publications, teaching, service, and professional affiliations. It also supports browsing and a search function which returns faceted results for rapid retrieval of desired information. The rich semantically structured data in VIVO support and facilitate research discovery. Examples of applications that consume these rich data include: visualizations, enhanced multi-site search through VIVO Search, and applications such as VIVO Searchlight, a browser bookmarklet which uses text content of any webpage to search for relevant VIVO profiles, and the Inter-Institutional Collaboration Explorer, an application which allows visualization of collaborative institutional partners, among others. Institutions are free to participate in the national network by installing and using the application. The application provides linked data via RDF data making users a part of the semantic web! or any other application that provides linked data can be used. Users can also get involved with developing applications that provide enhanced search, new collaboration capabilities, grouping, finding and mapping scientists and their work.

A structured controlled vocabulary of the anatomy and development of the Zebrafish (Danio rerio). It includes a list of structures, organized hierarchically into an ontology, with descriptions of each structure. The current version is being written by a consortium of researchers, each serving as an expert for a particular set of anatomical structures. Additional anatomical information derived from the current literature is provided by the ZFIN curation group. Development of a complete and uniform anatomical ontology for the zebrafish is vital to the success of zebrafish science. The anatomical ontology is necessary for: * Effective data dissemination and informatics. * A reference framework. * Interoperability.
