## About Projects

On the Panomics Platform, a project primarily serves as a collaborative space, giving users shared access to samples, analyses, files, and tools. Projects come with a range of features that enhance teamwork, allowing members to coordinate and organize their work efficiently while maintaining proper control over both data and tools.

## Create a Project

If a user has the `Create project` permission associated with their role, they can create projects by clicking on the `Create Project` button in the projects listing toolbar.
