temporal onset #4

relative temporal ordering of phenotype onset may be important for diagnosis. I think @mellybelly has some examples where a before b vs. b before a is a vital difference

cmungall commented 9 years ago

absolutely agreed but what is not clear is what the tradeoffs are. Recording per-phenotype properties incurs a mild complexity penalty on the format, which is an impediment if Excel is to be a limiting factor

level one will support basic onset qualifiers for conditions (phenotypes or diseases)

higher levels will support temporal and causal relationship graphs
