Ontologies and environments for creating and manipulating ontologies are
growing well beyond
the fields of computer science and philosophy. They have been embraced
in fields including medicine and medical
informatics. Stanford Medical Informatics has been a leader in
providing open source ontology tools with the Protege
toolkit and has also been a leader in using these tools to develop a
number of medical ontologies and applications.
Recently SMI has taken the next step in leading new work on bio
ontologies and has been selected to lead
a new bio ontology institute.
