The Type 2 Diabetes Knowledge Portal: an Open access Genetic Resource Dedicated to Type 2 Diabetes and Related Traits

Associations between human genetic variation and clinical phenotypes have become a foundation of biomedical research. Most repositories of these data seek to be disease-agnostic and therefore lack disease-focused views. The Type 2 Diabetes Knowledge Portal (T2DKP) is a public resource of genetic datasets and genomic annotations dedicated to type 2 diabetes (T2D) and related traits. Here, we seek to make the T2DKP more accessible to prospective users and more useful to existing users. First, we evaluate the T2DKP\u27s comprehensiveness by comparing its datasets with those of other repositories. Second, we describe how researchers unfamiliar with human genetic data can begin using and correctly interpreting them via the T2DKP. Third, we describe how existing users can extend their current workflows to use the full suite of tools offered by the T2DKP. We finally discuss the lessons offered by the T2DKP toward the goal of democratizing access to complex disease genetic results

Biolink Model: A universal schema for knowledge graphs in clinical, biomedical, and translational science

<h2>What's Changed</h2> <ul> <li>Documentation and repo hierarchy refactoring by @sierra-moxon in https://github.com/biolink/biolink-model/pull/1418</li> </ul> <p>Summary: 4.0.0 is a major release that includes many changes to the documentation for Biolink Model as well as the reorganization of the repository to support the new documentation structure and comply with LinkML best practices. The model itself has not changed significantly, but the documentation has been updated to reflect the current state of the model, and includes new visualizations of the model, additional text-based documentation, and a new gh-pages documentation layout.</p> <p><strong>Full Changelog</strong>: https://github.com/biolink/biolink-model/compare/v3.6.0...v4.0.0</p>Please cite the following works when using this software
