Research+Pages+2017


 * PURPOSE**: the Research pages are intended to be a continuous update of your research progress and highlights. You results & brief analysis will go here but not the details of how you did it (e.g. the methods). Think of it as a sort of __ highlights __ of results page so that Dr. B and the mentors can quickly check on your progress.

Whenever you get an image, graph or piece of data – post it to your Research Page. Sharing failed results is encouraged because they facilitate understanding of the science and will help others as they overcome hurdles in their projects.

 * Put a line and **'Week 1&2'**, **'Week 3&4', etc.**
 * put a horizontal line after each section so you can tell where each begins or ends (there is a menu item in GDrive for this)


 * Post in **reverse chronological order** (newest stuff on top - so we don't have to scroll down so much)

EXAMPLE:

 * Make your images a decent size
 * Include captions or text describing the image or images
 * **Don't post links to files**-
 * Post images by uploading them (keep files in your Google Docs)
 * Use the 'snipping' tool if necessary to get a small screen shot of what you want to show - but often you want to save the raw data image in your GDrive

Your WikiPage should have __ //images:// __ gels (well annotated) and other __ images __ of research like graphs and tables of date (not just text!)


 * examples of things to include:
 * Transformation plates
 * nanodrop images
 * RE digest gel
 * PCR gel images
 * yields from Midiprep
 * yields from protein purification
 * tables of absorbance values, bar graphs of enzyme activity
 * vitrual screening results tables (e.g. Top 10 results)
 * PyMol images of top 1 or 2 docked ligands
 * etc.


 * __Captions__: you should have enough information in the caption to let the reader (Dr. B) understand what it is.
 * __Brief analysis__ of the result (e.g. 1-2 sentences of why it did or didn't work, next steps, etc.).

Instructions for Creating Your Research Page:
1. On VDS Google Drive:


 * Under your student folder (make one if not done already), create a Google Doc and name it: **UTEID**_FirstNameLastInitial_ResearchPage
 * note this one has the UTEID - but the one below does not need it.....
 * e.g. XYZ42_DianeC_ResearchPage


 * Share the document with Dr. B by putting in the Research Pages folder as well as your own folder:
 * Go back to your student folder, select the document, and hit SHIFT+Z
 * An "Add To" selection will pop up. Select "Research Pages" and hit "Add"

2. On the VDS WikiSpaces

>> - make sure anyone with the link **can view**
 * Login to WikiSpaces and create a page (the option is on the left hand navigation bar)
 * Name the page: FirstNameLastInitial_ResearchPage2015 (e.g. DianeC_ResearchPage2015)
 * Go to your new WikiSpaces page and hit "Edit"
 * At the top of the editing page, click widget and select "Other HTML"
 * Copy and paste this code to the text box: 
 * Replace ONLY the red text with the shareable link of the Google Docs you created in step 1


 * Hit 'Save' to save the code. 'Save' the draft of WikiSpaces page. Your Google Docs should appear on your WikiSpaces Page.

3. Edit this page:


 * Below these instructions, add your WikiSpaces page title to the list (FirstNameLastInitial_ResearchPage2015)
 * Highlight your page title and hit "Link"
 * Under "Page Name," search for your WikiSpaces page. Select and hit "Add Link"
 * Save the edits to the page, and make sure your link works!
