Monarch Search

Search the Monarch Initiative knowledge graph for biomedical entities by name or keyword. Returns genes, diseases, phenotypes, and other entities matching the query, with CURIE identifiers and categories. Filter by category (biolink:Gene, biolink:Disease, biolink:PhenotypicFeature) to narrow results. Use returned CURIEs with Monarch_get_entity and Monarch_get_associations for detailed lookups.
