Study Name Conventions

MODEL-AD study names should be formatted as follows.

Study Organization

File Structure

Studies are organized in Synapse with a directory schema similar to this:

• Study_Name/

  • Data/

    • Assay_a/

    • Assay_b/

  • Metadata/

  • Staging/ (Note: Files will initially be uploaded to staging locations)

    • Assay_*/

File naming

File names should be concise, descriptive, and unique across the entire study. We must be able to distinguish between each file as if there were all in one directory.

See general file naming recommendations from the Princeton U Library.

Study Documentation

Each study will need a Study Description, Methods Description, and Acknowledgment Statement. The Documentation Submission Form includes some templates for these documents and instructions about submitting the documents.

Study Description

MODEL-AD specific templates are being drafted and will be made available on Synapse (see Study, Acknowledgment, and Methods). Each study should be accompanied by a brief study description that includes the species, genetic background, a link to the Jax Datasheet (if available) or a description of how the animals were created.

Methods Description

Each assay should include a brief description of the procedures, data collection, and analytical methods. This is a good opportunity to provide useful details that may not be included in the manuscript.

Acknowledgment Statement

Every MODEL-AD study should include the following acknowledgment:
