Developers

The Foundational Model of Anatomy ontotogy is being developed as an integral component of the Anatomy Information System through which all projects pursued by the Structural Informatics Group (SIG) are coordinated. Members of the SIG are involved to different extents and in different capacities in the development of the FMA.
