Second Release

1. In order to facilitate the use of these notebooks, we have made them available to run in the cloud via Google Colab.
2. The queries now utilize the ontology graph structure to return samples that are annotated as an ancestral term to the query term according to the ontology graphs and thus, the queries return more results.
3. In the Case-Control Finder, we have implemented the ability to match cases to controls by sex and age in addition to tissue and cell type. Fourth, we’ve coalesced many of the notebook cells in order to make the tools more simple and easy to use.
4. Users can formulate queries using ontology term ID’s (e.g. DOID:3571, the term ID for “liver cancer”).
5. The static metadata files are now compressed. Instructions are provided for uncompressing these files for use with the notebooks
