Add comorbidities field in the donor_organism #1569

Closed arschat closed 1 month ago

arschat commented 3 months ago

For which schema is a change/update being suggested?

I would like to request an update to the donor_organism.json schema.

What should the change/update be?

I would like to add a new field - comorbidities - to this schema to allow data contributors to describe comorbidities or secondary diseases of the donor.

This update constitutes a minor change to the schema(s) it affects.

What new field(s) need to be changed/added?

Why is the change requested?

Many bionetworks are interested in the comorbidities/ secondary diseases of the donor recorded separately from the primary disease(s).
