Reporting

Generally, users want to know the data collected for different/ particular collection protocols based on different criterias. E.g., Saliva Samples from Male participants, Participants that are turning 18, Samples from the participants that have consented, etc. 

OpenSpecimen reporting modules help the users to search within or across collection protocols and various criteria to get the required results.
