Comment: Splitting the "Browsing, Searching, and Downloading Investigation Data" page into multiple pages.

Once you browse or search the CSSI DCC data sets and reach a selected investigation detailsstudy details, or assay details page, you can continue exploring the data. The ISA-Tab format is hierarchical, with investigation components becoming more granular as you proceed down the hierarchy. The largest organizing entity is the investigation, which holds one or more studies. Each study includes one or more assays. Assays are composed of samples, which in turn are composed of protocols. Data files are often associated with a protocol.

The following diagram depicts the hierarchy, without the samples and protocols.
