BrainInfo（braininfo.org）是一个不断发展的网络神经科学信息门户网站。它由NeuroNames索引，这是一种旨在弥补神经解剖学命名中模糊性的本体。20岁的本体论继续朝着认识神经解剖实体的所有名称和容纳神经科学家交流的所有结构概念的理想发展，包括神经解剖学家尚未确定最佳或“真正”概念化的实体的多个概念。为了使结构概念的定义明确和术语一致，我们创建了一个从现有术语中选择的唯一结构名称的“默认词汇表”。我们选择的标准，旨在最大限度地提高实用性，用于口头交流以及计算机化的知识管理的标准名称。NeuroNames的本体包含许多语言中标准术语的同义词和同音异义词。它将复杂结构定义为由主要结构组成的模型，这些主要结构以明确的操作术语定义。NeuroNames目前将八种语言的16，000多个名称与大约2，500个神经解剖学概念联系起来。本体在一个关系数据库中维护，该数据库具有三个核心表：名称、概念和模型。BrainInfo使用NeuroNames按结构索引信息，解释用户的查询，并澄清远程网页上的术语。NeuroNames是NLM的统一医学语言系统的资源词汇表，也是NIFSTD的大脑区域组件的基础。目前的版本已被下载到数百个实验室，用于编制数据索引和与BrainInfo连接，每天吸引约400名访问者，每天下载2 000页。
BrainInfo (http://braininfo.org) is a growing portal to neuroscientific information on the Web. It is indexed by NeuroNames, an ontology designed to compensate for ambiguities in neuroanatomical nomenclature. The 20-year old ontology continues to evolve toward the ideal of recognizing all names of neuroanatomical entities and accommodating all structural concepts about which neuroscientists communicate, including multiple concepts of entities for which neuroanatomists have yet to determine the best or ‘true’ conceptualization. To make the definitions of structural concepts unambiguous and terminologically consistent we created a ‘default vocabulary’ of unique structure names selected from existing terminology. We selected standard names by criteria designed to maximize practicality for use in verbal communication as well as computerized knowledge management. The ontology of NeuroNames accommodates synonyms and homonyms of the standard terms in many languages. It defines complex structures as models composed of primary structures, which are defined in unambiguous operational terms. NeuroNames currently relates more than 16,000 names in eight languages to some 2,500 neuroanatomical concepts. The ontology is maintained in a relational database with three core tables: Names, Concepts and Models. BrainInfo uses NeuroNames to index information by structure, to interpret users’ queries and to clarify terminology on remote web pages. NeuroNames is a resource vocabulary of the NLM’s Unified Medical Language System and the basis for the brain regions component of NIFSTD. The current version has been downloaded to hundreds of laboratories for indexing data and linking to BrainInfo, which attracts some 400 visitors/day, downloading 2,000 pages/day.
