This is an interactive dashboard to explore a Belly Button Biodiversity dataset, which catalogs the microbes that colonize human navels! The dataset reveals that a small handful of microbial species (also called operational taxonomic units, or OTUs, in this study) were present in more than 70% of people, while the rest were relatively rare.
To start, you can select a dataset ID from the dropdown menu to explore all the varieties of navel fauna & flora that were studied. The dropdown is created using D3 methods to: populate the menu's options, accept a user's input...
...and then, to query the dataset json and create the Demographic table and two Plotly charts (the horizontal bar chart and bubble diagram with tooltip popups, shown below).
Enjoy the interactive navel gazing!
