Greetings From GeneLab!
A new metadata tutorial, and additional datasets enhance the GeneLab repository.
GeneLab Tutorial: Metadata download and visualization using ISACreator
GeneLab uses the ISACreator tool to define an experimental study and store the metadata.
The GeneLab user community will utilize the ISACreator tool bundled with a specific GeneLab configuration to create and visualize study metadata. This tutorial demonstrates how to download the tool and visualize the study metadata in a windows environment. An analog process could be followed in Mac systems. The ISACreator tool and tutorial are available on the GLDS landing page:
