Slot: experimental factor (experimental_factor)

Experimental factors are essentially the variable aspects of an experiment design which can be used to describe an experiment or set of experiments in an increasingly detailed manner. This field accepts ontology terms from Experimental Factor Ontology (EFO) and/or Ontology for Biomedical Investigations (OBI).
