In Agile environment we are building a data curation web application on top of research, genomics and clinical data sources.
This interactive aaplication will let user access structured and unstructured data from the said sources. After curation this
application will persist clean, structured and correct data.
User interface will be written mostly in Angular JS v4 interacting with web services written in spring bootstrap.
