  • Add STRING confidence scores for protein associations by @mbrush in https://github.com/biolink/biolink-model/pull/1772
  • feat: statistical significance qualifier on associations by @SkyeAv in https://github.com/biolink/biolink-model/pull/1766

  • Updates to association representation to support StringDB ingest by @mbrush in https://github.com/biolink/biolink-model/pull/1771
