In addition to managing settings (chemistries, instruments, and so on) for your runs, you can manage the patients for your runs. A patient refers to an individual from whom a sample was taken. Managing patients for your runs consists of a variety of different activities, including reviewing and editing information (such as adding comments relationships) for existing patients and related patients, and generating, and optionally, saving Patient reports to the Geneticist Assistant database. You can work with patient information from the Patients tab or from the Patient tab.
