The CDISC Terminology Teams support the terminology needs of all CDISC foundational standards (Protocol, SDTM, CDASH, ADaM, SEND) as well as all CFAST therapeutic area standards development teams. The terminology teams evaluate all new term requests received through the new term request webpage (https://ncitermform.nci.nih.gov/ncitermform/?version=cdisc), incorporating as much as possible for each quarterly release. All CDISC terminology is vetted through a 4 week public review at the end of each quarter. CDISC controlled terminology is published 4 times per year, also at the end of each quarter. A link to the terminology publication schedule can be found here: https://www.cdisc.org/system/files/all/standard/terminology/terminology_publication_schedule.pdf.
CDISC controlled terminology is developed by teams composed of volunteers, using defined principles and best practices. If you are interested in volunteering on any of these terminology teams, please contact Chris Gemma (cgemma@cdisc.org). Here is a list of active terminology teams and their meeting schedule:
