birnlexDefinition

The organization to which an individual researcher or groups of researchers belong and where the research is usually conducted, usually a university or medical facility.

change note

This had been subclassed previously from the obi:independent_continuant, which has since been subsumed into bfo:independent_continuant. Just as with Experiment, it is not appropriate to have something as concrete as a participating research institution so high up in the more abstract layers of the ontology. I think it can live here under bfo:object_aggregate for now and possibly even stay here (BB:2006-10-10).

Check with BFO researchers whether this is an appropriate location in BFO for this class. Institutions are definitely entities they've had to handle before.
