EAE example Workflow Based Questions

Based on EAE example workflowfor data sharing between CIT and UCLA and the metadata used for the experiment:

• Allan sees a trend in the EAE brains he didn't see earlier (i.e. their Corpus Callosum is much thicker) and wants to find ALL the EAE animal volumes collected at both Duke and CIT so he can measure to see if there is a difference between the normal and EAE animals (Jyl)
  • What metadata would he need?
  • What would he use to take a quick look at the volumes and metadata to decide if it fit's his needs?
  • What tools are available for him to run further analyses and re-upload the newly processed data?
  • How does the newly processed data get linked to the original data?
• Someone decides they want to do a study of the different collection methods, so they do a search for all the normal animals collected by each of the different groups to evaluate if this is an appropriate pool for this sort of study (Jyl)

• How do I make a query over registered databases?
  • What tools can I try out for a trival test query? (Sally)

• How do I find the preferred Mouse BIRN strain name? (Jyl)
• Where do I find the tools to register my DB to the mediator? (Jyl)
• Subject ID Questions:
  • What methods are available to map my local Subject ID to a BIRN Subject ID? (Jyl)
  • How do I locate the BIRN Subject ID that I need to map to my local Subject ID? (Jyl)
