We’re pleased to share that a new paper from the CEDAR team has been accepted for presentation at the 2026 AMIA Annual Symposium: “Automated Standardization of Legacy Biomedical Metadata Using an Ontology-Constrained LLM Agent.” CEDAR’s core idea is that community metadata standards should be machine-actionable—encoded as templates that specify not just which fields are required, […]
We’re pleased to announce the publication of a new paper in the Data Science Journal titled “Author Once, Publish Everywhere: Portable Metadata Authoring with the CEDAR Embeddable Editor.” The paper takes a comprehensive look at the CEDAR Embeddable Editor (CEE)—the lightweight, interoperable Web Component that brings structured, standards-based metadata authoring directly into third-party platforms. Instead […]
We’re pleased to announce the publication of a new paper in AI Magazine titled “Knowledge Engineering for Open Science: Building and Deploying Knowledge Bases for Metadata Standards.” Synthesizing ten years of CEDAR research, the paper makes the case that the metadata templates at the heart of CEDAR are a modern form of declarative knowledge base—capturing, […]
This latest update strengthens CEDAR’s ability to support rich, standardized scientific metadata through the addition of new external authority field types. What’s New RRID Field SupportCEDAR now supports the RRID (Research Resource Identifier) field type. Template authors can include RRID fields in their templates and instances, allowing users to record standardized identifiers for reagents, tools, […]
