DUO Shorthand for use in UI and summary descriptions of DUO definitions

[solideoglori]

In a call with Craig Voisin and Alice Mann, we discussed the idea of adding a shorthand definition for each DUO term which could help them be described consistently in the UI of applications and as summary descriptions more easily referenceable than the current formal definitions.

A suggested approach is shared below:

I think I don't see enough difference between the proposed shorthand and the full definition, or what someone would understand from the label, to understand the usefulness of the "short definition" or "UI short display". I'd assume users would implement little mouse over popups; if so, does it make a lot of difference to omit the first part?

minor comments:

• GRU is "general research use" (not general research use and clinical care)
• There is already a shorthand property which is used for the acronyms eg NRES, so this would need another label

Discussion with Craig/Jonathan/Alice/Melanie on Aug 19th:

• there is a need for greater clarity in the labels of the terms - @alicelmann will add this to the agenda for next DUO call
• once done, we will assess whether there is still a need for the short definition version
• if needed, we will add the short definition version following the model of the existing translations
• we would like to add the Australian Genomics plain language as a translation as well
