From the CaTissue home page: "caTissue Suite is caBIG's biorepository tool for biospecimen inventory management, tracking, and annotation."

We need to learn how to use the caTissue API. In particular:

• what would it take to get the 2d bar code reader to feed caTissue with an array of sample barcodes, such that caTissue would check them against the database to verify that the samples are in the right box, and in the right location? Possibly without even knowing the ID of the box?

• what would it take to be able to process more than one participant at a time through the collection protocol? Currently the submission process includes checking for empty data in form elements which presumably have the same ID in each open tab or window, thus throwing an error.
