h3. caBIG® Life Sciences Domain Analysis Model (LS DAM) v2.2.23 is Released

 We are pleased to announce the release of the caBIG® Life Sciences Domain Analysis Model (LS DAM) v22.2.23.  The LS DAM providesis a shared view of the semantics for thelife Lifesciences Sciences domain, which includes hypothesis- driven basic and pre-clinical research as well as discovery science.
\\
The changessciences.  The key updates to the LS DAM in this release are described in the Release Summary and include:
* Changes to the Experiment Core for clearer alignment with the ISA-TAB standard and to address feedback from HL7 Clinical Genomics Work * * Group collaborators
* Deletion of several classes determined not to be in scope of the model
* Addition of an LS DAM Users Guide
* Report and models from an LS DAM Ontological Representation Pilot project

For a complete list of modifications and additions to the LS DAM v 2.2.2, please see the Release Summary and Change List, For an exemplar on how the Experiment Core of the LS DAM could be instantiated to support a sample scenario, please see the Experiment Implementation Guide.

The LS DAM v2.2.2 model is available in two formats:

An Enterprise Architect file may be downloaded LS DAM v 2.2.2 EA file
A web based view of the model is also available using Internet Explorer LS DAM v2.2.2 HTML:

\-          Introduction of  a new class, _ActivityCollection_, which supports the semantics around collections of activities that may be performed (or planned) regardless of purpose, such as specimen processing activities in a tissue bank or routine maintenance of equipment in a laboratory.

\-          Change of the data type binding from the ISO 21090 data type specification to the HL7 Abstract Data Type R2 (HL7 ADT R2) specification.
