Align with and coordinate with BCIO

[cmungall]

BCIO features heavily in the national academies report:

https://nap.nationalacademies.org/catalog/26464/ontologies-in-the-behavioral-sciences-accelerating-research-and-the-spread

https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ols/ontologies/bcio

The emphasis is more on human behavior rather than comparative, but we should have a clear empirical picture of how they align and different in content, use cases, etc.

I have added BCIO to the semsql registry so it's now easy to query with OAK. I will post an alignment later

[cmungall]

an ultra naive lexmatch yields the following but this is likely a massive underestimation due to different lexical forms etc, will refine later

An online behaviour ontologies coordination meeting is taking place on 6th July 2023 at 18:00 UK time. Attached is my contribution on behalf of the NBO as I am unlikely to be able to attend. @aclark-binghamton-edu @pmidford and anyone else, feel free to add comments below. I hope to be invited onto a future working group. NBO 230706.pdf

@DitchingIt Thanks for the heads up and chance to read your contribution. Going through it later today.

A video of most of the meeting can be found here.

@aclark-binghamton-edu @pmidford @dosumis A brief follow-up with Janna suggests that talking to BCIO amongst others may be a good way to share out some of the sections of NBO which we have less incentive to maintain ourselves. Even exploring the details of this, let alone doing it will probably take more resources than NBO currently has access to. A possible grant application is being considered for September. (NB: Trait and phenotype deprecations are already in a sort of zombie-zone for this reason.)

However, I feel there is more reason now to put my efforts into reworking a module or modules which take the NBO in more of an ethological direction and I will pick that up in #127.

Thanks, @DitchingIt , for link and catching us up--and past efforts. Late June, @pmidford and I had a conversation about the ABO in relation to (largely) non-human behavioral biology imperatives for data preservation and access and, thus, appropriate and standard meta-data. We are trying to awaken interest in ABO-NBO initiatives in the animal behavior community (discussions, workshops at ABS or ISBE meetings to develop more realized use cases), and the ethological foundation will be key. Will coordinate and help as I can with your NBO efforts.
