Abstract
The collaborative, community-based Vaccine Ontology (VO) was developed to promote vaccine data standardization, integration, and computer-assisted reasoning. Currently VO covers a variety of aspects of the vaccine domain, with an emphasis on classification of vaccines and vaccine components, and on host immune response to vaccines. VO can be used for a number of applications, e.g., ontology-based vaccine literature mining through collaboration with the National Center for Integrative Biomedical Informatics (NCIBI).
