We want to organize all the known facts in neurobiology so we can mash them up. There are no  “facts” in neurobiology, except uninteresting ones.  3. All we have, are assertions supported by evidence, of varying quality.

The target hypothesis will be linked to: Pathway & target relation to disease, Target selection criteria,  Validation assays and criteria, Experiment (assay) provenance, Experimental data and computations, Scientist remarks, findings and discussion.  Start as a relatively simple model and extend
Hypotheses of therapeutic action for compounds and scaffolds, linked to Hypothesis / results for individual assays, Experiment (assay) provenance, Experimental data, Group annotation,  Internal databases etc. Start as a relatively simple model and extend
 
Information ecosystem
Curing complex medical disorders goes hand in hand with next-gen biomedical communications Web 3.0 provides the technology framework Semantic annotation, hypothesis management, nanopubs: tools for next-gen biomed comms .  Requires / enables international collaborations of biomedical researchers and informaticians. Open enterprise model with semantic metadata.
