Logo for Foundational Model of Anatomy The Foundational Model of Anatomy Ontology (FMA) is a biomedical informatics ontology. It is concerned with the representation of classes or types and relationships necessary for the symbolic representation of the phenotypic structure of the human body. Specifically, the FMA is a domain ontology that represents a coherent body of explicit declarative knowledge about human anatomy.

Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in Foundational Model of Anatomy should match this regular expression:
^\d+$

Example Local Unique Identifier
63189   Resolve
Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from Foundational Model of Anatomy should match this regular expression:
^FMA:\d+$

Example CURIE
FMA:63189
MIRIAM Namespace Embedded in LUI
The legacy MIRIAM standard for generating CURIEs with this resource annotates the namespaceEmbeddedInLUI as true. This means that you may see local unique identifiers that include a redundant prefix and delimiter (also known as a banana) and therefore look like a CURIE. For Foundational Model of Anatomy, the banana looks like FMA:. Therefore, you may see local unique identifiers for this resource that look like FMA:63189 (instead of the canonical form 63189) and CURIEs for this resource that look like FMA:FMA:63189 (instead of the canonical form FMA:63189). The Bioregistry will automatically strip off the banana when standardizing local unique identifiers and CURIEs.
