February 2026 release is available in Athena!

Dear all!

I am pleased to announce that the new release v20260227 is now available in Athena!

During this release we focused mainly on Drug vocabularies and prepared some awesome things for you:

  • We updated 11 vocabularies, including VANDF/VA Class, OMOP Extension and Type Concept refresh on the Community’s request.
  • CIEL was updated as a part of Complex Community Contribution initiative by @Andy_Kanter, @Polina_Talapova and @Denys_Kaduk.
  • EDI was updated by the stewards @Yiju_Park and @SCYou.
  • A new vocabulary HPO was introduced as a simple Community Contribution by @Alexdavv and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill team.
  • We performed a massive deduplication of RxNorm Extension.
  • We improved concept names for ATC and CPT4 vocabularies.
  • We implemented mapping improvements reported by our Community members (kudos to @edburn , @MPhilofsky , @katy-sadowski and @Dymshyts)

As always, the detailed report on the release is available on our GitHub.

Please join us on the March 3rd Community Call where we will talk about the release.

Happy Friday and enjoy our new vocabulary release!

Best,
Masha and the Vocabulary Team
