Change the content of shinydashboard sidebars according to tabPanel selected

Question

I have the shiny app below with 3 different tabs, a sidebar and a right sidebar. I would like every time that I move to another tab the content of the two sidebars to change and display different widgets. In the commeted -out lines you can see the different widgets that I want to display.

library(shiny)
library(shinydashboard)
library(shinydashboardPlus)
library(shiny)


shinyApp(
  ui = tags$body(class="skin-blue sidebar-mini control-sidebar-open",dashboardPage(
    options = list(sidebarExpandOnHover = TRUE),
    header = dashboardHeader(title = "Investment Advisor Monitoring - Insider Trading",titleWidth = 450),
    
    sidebar = dashboardSidebar(minified = F, collapsed = F,
                               h4("Investment Selected"),
                               textInput("StockTicker", "Enter Stock Symbol", value = "NFLX")
                               #textInput("StockTicker2", "Enter Stock Symbol 2", value = "NFLX")
                               #textInput("StockTicker3", "Enter Stock Symbol 3", value = "NFLX")
                               
                               ),
    body = dashboardBody(
      h3('Results'),
      tabsetPanel(
        tabPanel("Insider Training"),
        tabPanel("Switching"),
        tabPanel("Tax Loss Harvesting")
        
      )
      
    ),
    controlbar = dashboardControlbar(width = 300,
                                     h4("Insider Trading Parameters"),              
                                     
                                     
                                     selectInput("InsiderTradingModel", "Insider Trading Model",
                                                 c("Dynamic" = "Dynamic",
                                                   "AI based" = "AIbased"))
                                     #selectInput("InsiderTradingModel2", "Insider Trading Model 2",
                                      #           c("Dynamic" = "Dynamic",
                                       #            "AI based" = "AIbased"))
                                     #selectInput("InsiderTradingModel3", "Insider Trading Model 3",
                                     #           c("Dynamic" = "Dynamic",
                                     #            "AI based" = "AIbased"))
    ),
    title = "DashboardPage"
  )),
  server = function(input, output) { 
    
  }
)
