Lab Administration
Lab Administration
The Lab Administration Dashboard in the NAN portal provides Principal Investigators (PIs) and their designated delegates with tools to manage their lab's structure, users, and associated funding. It is accessible from the left-hand menu bar and is only available to authorized PI-level accounts.
Overview
Lab administration enables effective data organization, project tracking, and user management. Datasets in NAN are organized under lab-level Projects, which can be linked to specific funding sources. Managing user permissions ensures appropriate access control, while linking funding allows for straightforward reporting to funding agencies.
