<unk>  is intended to be a general-use ontology for medical education informatics. It has two primary potential applications: # Inclusion in curriculum maps. By mapping learning objects or sessions to<unk>  Topics in a curriculum map, the map becomes searchable for both granular and broad concepts. If one or more Outcome frameworks are included with the Topic ontology, then the contribution of each curricular element to one or more Outcomes is made explicit. This also facilitates curriculum evaluation in terms of one or more outcome frameworks. # Indexing learning, assessment and portfolio objects. Metatagging learning objects or assessment objects with a controlled vocabulary enhances the organization and retrieval of objects from a repository. Metatagging electronic portfolio entries allows one to show how multiple entries "add up" to a demonstration of competence with respect to certain educational outcomes. The possibility of expanding or modifying<unk>  for use in postgraduate/continuing medical education and in nursing education is currently being explored.
