Design Principles

1. Single Primary Hierarchy E.g. Medicine › Internal Medicine › Infectious Diseases › COVID-19
2. Synonyms (Non Preferred Terms) E.g. COVID-19 ≈ Coronavirus Disease
3. Related Terms E.g. COVID-19 › related to › Pulmonary Diseases
4. Multi-lingual E.g. Medicina › Medicina interna › Doenças infecciosas › COVID-19

Other Considerations

• Search based user experience: Users can search and find a term using primary terms or synonyms, and with corrections for basic spelling mistakes. Users should not have to navigate a drop down list ever!
