Matthias, In DBPedia, the following pages describe 2 brain regions (Telencephalon and Cerebrum): http://dbpedia.org/resource/Telencephalon http://dbpedia.org/page/Cerebrum NIFSTD is listed as one of the neuroscience ontologies through BioPortal, its description of cerebrum is available at: http://bioportal.bioontology.org/visualize/39595/p15:birnlex_1042 If you read the editorial note (written by Bill Bug), it says: "It isn't clear all would agree Cerebrum and Telencephalon are equivalent." Should we use "sameAs" or something else?
