What is "born_study"?
"born_study" is a network drive. This is on our server is very well secured.

  1. Create a folder on the hard drive "local_data" (the best folder name ist the name of the study)

  3. After every experimental night, you need to move your data to the server. This is very importent!
    1. so that there is always a latest backup
