Study Organization

MODEL-AD Studies will be organized in Synapse with a directory schema similar to this:

• Study_name/

  • Assay_Type_1/ (data from first assay)

  • Assay_Type_2/ (data from second assay)

  • Metadata/

  • Staging/ (data that has yet to be released)

    • Assay_Type_n/ (unreleased data from nth assay)

Best practices for naming data files

File names should be concise, descriptive, and unique across the entire study. In other words, we should be able to distinguish between each file name and type if there were in one directory. See general file naming recommendations from the Princeton and Stanford libraries.
