# Collections

Collections are a way of organising Samples by overarching research question, or in whatever way makes sense for you and your lab. Most papers or projects will have multiple wet lab experiments associated with them, and so multiple Samples. Collections are a way of organising these together in a single, shareable resource, with associated papers as a showcase for all the relevant Data.
