I think we have ATC codes for most major drugs thanks to ChEMBL, but web interface elements could benefit from being able to work directly on the tree structure. We could think about implementing something here to support that.
Broadly, we'd like to support basic logical operations, like "is this drug a member of this class?". A naive way to do this would be to capture all parent classes, flatten them down to a single drug category layer, and then treat them kind of like a reference type. This would probably be pretty ugly in DynamoDB, though.
Anyway, not something we'll accomplish in the short term, but could dovetail well with the U grant proposal.
