'lab_name' description and example are ambiguous #92

Closed ssnn-airr closed 5 years ago

ssnn-airr commented 6 years ago

Description for the field 'lab_name' is 'Department of corresponding author' but the example value is a lab name 'Stibbons Lab'. It is not clear what is expected, if a Department name or a Lab name.

Sorry, the example value is a bit sloppy, something along the lines of "Dept. of Quantum Immunology" would be more appropriate.

Please note that these field have been bugging us for a while now (#13) and that the issue how to get them into NCBI BioProject is still open (#57).

Is this on the agenda for next call? (ping @ahmadchan ) I have data ready to submit with CAIRR, if we could make a decission on this soon, they would be able to update the data submission templates.

Is this this an open issue after we moved to specs\miairr.yaml?

The description text for lab_name was clarified in commit ed4c486, along with other issues regarding submitter/collector information.
