About

The Ontogenesis KnowledgeBlog is a resource for publishing encyclopedia style articles about Ontologies and their use especially, but not exclusively, with the life sciences.

The idea of a KnowledgeBlog and this application of it to Ontologies came from Phillip Lord from the School of Computing Science at Newcastle University.

Support has come from Robert Stevens and David Shotton, with the content on this KnowledgeBlog has been seeded by the the Ontogenesis Network, supported by EPSRC grant EP/E021352/1. The first content was generated at a meeting funded by this network.
