Summary

The lab conducts many studies on the same population of monkeys and collects all of their data in Excel Worksheets. This works well for analyzing individual studies, but they needed a system for tracking subjects across multiple studies to compare their performance at different tasks. To help with this we created a database with a custom R library for adding and accessing census and study data. For lab members that are not familiar with R, or just want to quickly browse the data we created a website using R-Shiny.
