Request to add terms to OPMI

[Astghik-S]

Dear OPMI Maintainers,

As part of the OBO Foundry principles, we aim to ensure that terms are included in the most appropriate ontology and avoid duplication across ontologies wherever possible. We are working on a biomarker ontology (BMONT) and have identified several terms related to clinical and diagnostic metrics that may align well with the scope of OPMI. Before proceeding to define these terms in our ontology, I wanted to reach out to ask if you would like to integrate any or all of the following terms into OPMI.

The terms are as follows:

• therapeutic biomarker
• pharmacodynamic biomarker
• digital biomarker

We believe they could add value to OPMI if they are not already included.

Please let us know if you would like to incorporate any of these terms, or if you would prefer that we proceed with defining them in our own ontology. We are happy to collaborate and ensure these terms are defined in a way that aligns with OBO Foundry standards.

Thank you for considering our request. We look forward to hearing your thoughts and are open to any guidance you may have.

Best regards,
