Registry Gender, Sex, and Sexual Orientation Ontology

The Gender, Sex, and Sexual Orientation (GSSO) ontology is an interdisciplinary ontology connecting terms from biology, medicine, psychology, sociology, and gender studies, aiming to bridge gaps between linguistic variations inside and outside of the health care environment. A large focus of the ontology is its consideration of LGBTQIA+ terminology.

Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in Gender, Sex, and Sexual Orientation Ontology should match this regular expression:
^\d{6}$

Example Local Unique Identifier
002368   Resolve
Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from Gender, Sex, and Sexual Orientation Ontology should match this regular expression:
^GSSO:\d{6}$

Example CURIE
GSSO:002368
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 Gender, Sex, and Sexual Orientation Ontology, the banana looks like GSSO:. Therefore, you may see local unique identifiers for this resource that look like GSSO:002368 (instead of the canonical form 002368) and CURIEs for this resource that look like GSSO:GSSO:002368 (instead of the canonical form GSSO:002368). The Bioregistry will automatically strip off the banana when standardizing local unique identifiers and CURIEs.
