Key Models

Product

Allen Institute experimental study or reference data, provides context for the data

Donor

Mouse, Human or NHP donors

Specimen

Tissue from the donor used in an experiment or for histology

SectionDataSet

Collection of images' metadata for a gene expression experiment or histological purposes

MicroarrayDataSet

Microarray experiments' metadata

AtlasDataSet

Collection of annotated reference atlas images' metadata

Structure

Member of an anatomic structure ontology

StereotaxicInjection

Identifies the primary structure into which a viral tracer was introduced

Gene

Defined by an authority, associated with one or more probes used in experiments

TransgenicLine

Transgenic mouse line

SectionImage

Image that is a member of a SectionDataSet

AtlasImage

Image that is a member of a AtlasDataSet

Images

Image-based experiments are modeled as SectionDataSets. One SectionDataSet represents a single experiment associated with a Specimen. A SectionDataSet has an ordered set of SectionImages, each representing one section.
