+## Motivation
+
+Lorem Ipsum
+
+## Project structure
+
+## Data source
+
+## Data processing
+The raw data has multiple columns containing mixed datatypes, especially the time data. The time data are given in different units such as weeks or months and some are also given in intervals (e.g. 2-6 months, >14 weeks). As our project focuses on the vaccine effectiveness over time so as to remind users to take booster shots on time, we would like to quantify these string entries into numerical entries with a unit of days.
+
+To ensure the accuracy of our visual display, we matched and eliminated the data entries that only provide an open interval (e.g. > 2 weeks), as it would not provide the most time-sensitive data point. For a closed interval (e.g. 8-10 days), we again used regex expressions to extract the upper and lower bounds. We then multiplied the numeros in the substring by 7 or 30 days if the substrings 'week' and 'month' are matched in these entries so as to convert them into units of days.
+
+Similarly, we unified and filtered the data entries for dosage sequence, vaccine brand and represented groups. The processed data are then imported into the webapp.
