# Adding and editing subjects

### What are subjects?

Subjects are the participants taking part in your experiment. <br>

### Adding new subjects to an experiment

To add a new subject (participant) to an experiment, click on the + button at the top right-hand corner of the Subjects screen.&#x20;

When adding a new participant, you can include the following information about them:

* Subject ID — their name;
* Year born;
* Gender;
* Languages;
* Musical skills;
* Education;
* Occupation;
* Handedness;
* Country of residence;
* Country of major cultural influence; and
* Do you meditate?

Once you’ve completed all the participant’s information, click on Create and they will be added to the Subjects library.&#x20;

Participants can only be added to experiments published to LABS Local (privately). <br>

### Editing subjects

You can edit, duplicate or delete a participant saved in the subjects library. To do this, hold your mouse over the participant you want to edit. This will then highlight the edit, duplicate, and delete options.<br>
