How are data organized in NDAR?
When an investigator is authorized to submit data to NDAR, he or she has the ability to organize one or many datasets into a single entity called an “NDAR Collection.” In general terms, an “NDAR Collection” is a container for the data that is submitted, allowing an investigator to describe in detail the collected data. Once data is contained in a collection, a researcher may then link that data to an NDAR Study hypothesis, defining population and subpopulations specific to the aims of an investigator’s research. Refer to Data Sharing for more information.
