IEKB: a comprehensive knowledge base for inner ear genetics integrating curated associations, cochlear interactions, Bayesian candidate prioritisation, explainable dark-gene support relations, and a scientific entity network

2026-04-09

Abstract excerpt

Inner-ear genetics has expanded rapidly, yet the supporting evidence remains dispersed across a vast literature and across resources that typically emphasise loci, variants, or expression data rather than integrated biological interpretation. Here we present the Inner Ear Knowledge Base (IEKB; https://earkb.org ), an open database that unifies curated associations, cochlear interaction evidence, candidate priorit...
