neoplasm as disorder not disposition

[cstoeckert]

We have imported neoplasms (also labeled as tumors) from NCIT and placed them under cancer from the Disease Ontology based on the alternative label 'malignant neoplasm'. We should reorganize these so that disorders (material entities) are not asserted as types of diseases (dispositions) as presented in the ONCONTO Workshop at ICBO (Duncan, Gaudioso, and Diehl, Towards an Ontology for Representing Malignant Neoplasms). Consider making use of 'has material basis in' to help distinguish and relate.

currently importing terms, creating others as necessary with TURBO URIs, and assigning axioms.

To do: annotate thoroughly, touch base with other ontology maintainers, esp. Alex D. Think about where the terms should live/who should own the URIs. Then propose to OBIB team.

Jie has some knowledge about ongoing discussions.

Have mentioned the issue on the OGMS call. The issue has been created in OGMS:
OGMS/ogms#127

[cstoeckert]

OGMS has made http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/OGMS_0000147 neoplasm a child of tissue disorder. These terms should be imported and changes made indicated in this ticket.
