Gene ontology & cognitive ontology databases

Fascinated by these two resources.

Gene ontology, https://geneontology.org/
Referenced in over 159,000 papers, the goal of the gene ontology resource is an "up-to-date, comprehensive, computational model of biological systems, from the molecular level to larger pathways, cellular and organism-level systems."

The Cognitive Atlas, https://www.cognitiveatlas.org/
A collaborative knowledge building project that aims to develop a knowledge base (or ontology) that characterizes the state of current thought in cognitive science.

(Ontology refers to how we classify and group things as we explain them, aka: what's close to what).

The fact that these are two databases not one illustrates where we are (in brain/mind research). If only we could unite them!
