Technology Guides¶
Using a new technology or software can be fraught with nuances and steep learning curves. Here, we try to compile guides that help us understand and use certain software or hardware that we use in the lab. If you think you have a guide to contribute, feel free to write it up and link it here for the benefit of all lab members.
Lab policies formerly grouped here (Internet Access, Software, Mailing Lists, Repositories) have moved to the Member Handbook, since they're policy/reference material of the same kind as the handbook's other IT policies rather than technical tutorials.
