[Feature]: Single session - skipped pages

Open bendichter opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

What would you like to see added to the NWB GUIDE?

Here I see "Subject details" and I am a bit confused because I think I won't get a chance to add any information about the subjects. Maybe a better label would be "Subjects table"

Do you have any interest in helping implement the feature?

Yes.

Code of Conduct

Yes

Did you confirm this feature was not already reported?

Yes

Better name too might be "Sessions table" (which is the main reason it was excluded in the single session case), the fact that subject info is on it is largely for convenience but the real reason it exists is to let you add multiple sessions

Isn't this the table where each row is a subject, and you can add subject information like species and date of birth? In the way I think about data models that would make it a subjects table.

The column right next to the subject ID is 'sessions', which is the only place you can control how many sessions you have in the pipeline

You can always override any other metadata on that table later down the pipeline, except for the sessions field - so conceptually we could just remove all the subject information (except for the ID, assumed to have a closer relationship to the session ID than anything else)

Cody's comment is related to https://github.com/NeurodataWithoutBorders/nwb-guide/issues/482.

Subject table seems a bit vague. Maybe something that directly addresses the utility of this page for "multi-session subject information"
