  • We have samples from 6 different human donors.

  • Each donor corresponds to exactly 1 specimen (tissue used for study)

  • Each sample was subject to multiple (in fact 4) different probes.

  • The probe data structures contain the list of gene expression of a particular gene measured in each sample. Therefore the length of the gene expression list in a probe coresponds to the number of samples taken in the corresponding donor for the given gene.
