     Info

     Note that not all investigations in the Portal have a value for each field. For example, in the Characterization of Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) study in the screenshot above, there is no value for Study Assay Technology Type. This is reflected in the pie chart for Study Assay Technology Type at the top of the screen. In that pie chart, 5 investigations have no value for this field while the remaining 3 have the value of "nucleotide sequencing."
