Biomedical atlases : systematics, informatics and analysis

<28>This paper describes contributions in biomedical atlasing, which are exemplified in the e-Mouse Atlas (EMA) project (www.emouseatlas.org). The EMA is frequently used by biomedical researchers; with ~3,500 visits per week, and ~8GB of data downloaded per day (from google analytics). The EMA is regarded as having pioneered the field of biomedical atlases and has provided the template and codebase for other atlas projects, e.g. chick (www.echickatlas.org) and human (http://www.hudsen.org). An update to the EMA ontology, building on the work in this paper, has just been published in the Journal of Biomedical Semantics (doi:10.1186/2041-1480-4-15) - co-authored by Burger and Baldock.
