Ontology term selection in the ISAcreator editor

A ‘user-friendly’ standalone Java application that assists the experimentalists to annotate the experimental metadata. Depending on the configuration (set via the ISAconfigurator tool), certain fields prompt a pop-up browser to search and select terms from ontologies that are accessed in real time via the Ontology Lookup Service and BioPortal.

Automated recognition of ontology terms and database IDs before publication with manual curation by author Word 2007 add-in
