Summary

To expand and improve the GO biological processes terms and annotations for neurological processes including the core cellular processes for synaptic transmission, through to some of the higher order brain processes like cognition, and to fully augment GO cc with those terms in Neurological Information Framework (NIF)

UPDATE [Jan 2016]: there is now an ongoing ontology synapse project (https://github.com/geneontology/synapse). Integration of NIF terms into GO CC was completed and published (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24093723).
