Matthias,

In DBPedia, the following pages describe 2 brain regions (Telencephalon and Cerebrum):

http://dbpedia.org/resource/Telencephalon
http://dbpedia.org/page/Cerebrum

NIFSTD is listed as one of the neuroscience ontologies through BioPortal, its description of cerebrum is available at:

http://bioportal.bioontology.org/visualize/39595/p15:birnlex_1042

If you read the editorial note (written by Bill Bug), it says:

"It isn't clear all would agree Cerebrum and Telencephalon are equivalent."

Should we use "sameAs" or something else?

Cheers,

-Kei

Question: Does a mapping between DBpedia and the OBO ontologies exist? Has someone already invested some time in doing this, or at least reviewed how to best approach it?

Given the central position of DBpedia in the linked data cloud and its rich content in the biomedical domain, creating such a mapping is an obvious (and very useful) thing to do.
