Hi,

I am curious if anyone here has mapped EMBL-EBI [Experimental Factor Ontology]to or EMBL-EBI [ChEMBL](https://www.ebi.ac.uk/chembl/) MedDRA?

Reviewing Drugs.indication, they contain the NCT ID, but not the meddra code. I know NCT ID can be mapped to meddra, but curious how others may have approached mapping disease and or indication to MedDRA and why.

Thanks,  
Maggie

Hi @margaret.mcgee!

There is some ongoing work in this space, I believe. Our team generated a list of approximately 10,000 MedDRA to EFO mappings that we believe have a very high level of confidence.

See this ticket for more information: [MedDRA to EFO cross-references · Issue #1088 · EBISPOT/efo · GitHub](https://github.com/EBISPOT/efo/issues/1088)
