A study can integrate demographic and participant data (as you've already uploaded) with experimental and laboratory data. In this tutorial, we will upload a simple specimen archive which contains (fictional) data from specimens collected from some of the participants in our demo study. For more complete specimen repository information, see
Specimen Tracking.
Import a Specimen Archive
First you upload the specimen archive to the server, then import the data into the database.

- In the Specimens web part, expand the Specimen Reports item by clicking the "+".

- Clicking any link in the Summary table will itemize the specimen vials that make up that total count.
