   Disease maps for specific diseases
   Cross-disease projects
   Adverse outcome maps for immunotoxicology

The Disease Maps Community consolidates efforts focused on describing disease mechanisms. We aim to progress together through advancing technological solutions, sharing resources and best practices. New contributors are very welcome: please propose a new disease map or join one of the existing projects. Project progress status:

☆☆☆☆☆ Initiated/funded
★☆☆☆☆ Active development
★★☆☆☆ Available for exploration online
★★★☆☆ Published
★★★★☆ Maintained and improved
★★★★★ Applications demonstrated
