Use Cases
The Human Disease Ontology (DO) is utilized extensively in biomedical and bioinformatics applications:
- By scientists conducting primary and applied research,
- In databases and programmatic tools designed to support a wide variety of research and clinical decision-making,
- In the development of other ontologies and knowledge representation resources, and
- By for profit companies.
The table below contains a collection of ontologies, databases, software, algorithms, and other resources that incorporate or were created using the Disease Ontology and might prove useful to the broader scientific community. See the Details below the table for details on the methods used and nature of these resources. For more information about any specific resource, please visit its respective website (resource links open in a new tab).

How Were These Resources Identified?
The resources listed in the table were identified through programmatic searches of publications and conference presentations that cite the Disease Ontology, as well as through direct collaborations with the Disease Ontology project. The Disease Ontology team periodically reviews and curates this list to ensure its relevance and accuracy.
For a list of publications describing uses of the Disease Ontology, please refer to the 'Works Citing the Disease Ontology' collection at lens.org or the DO Reports - Publications file in the HumanDiseaseOntology GitHub repository.
Scope of the Table
The table includes databases, web platforms, algorithms, methods, and ontologies that incorporate or were developed using the Disease Ontology. These resources are designed to support the broader biomedical research community by enabling data integration, ontology development, and clinical decision-making.
For-Profit Companies
The table also includes a few for-profit companies that utilize the Disease Ontology. While the specific details of their use are not publicly available, their inclusion highlights the broad applicability of the Disease Ontology across sectors.
