BiomarkerKB dataset datamodel fields
biomarker_id
A unique identifier assigned to each canonical biomarker concept. The canonical biomarker represents the measured change or observation (e.g. "increased IL6 expression"); disease- or condition-specific records are child records that share the same biomarker_id while differing in condition, specimen, or evidence. biomarker_id is assigned by the biomarkerKB data processing scripts automatically so the field can be left blank.
