6 W.A.D.E. Lab

Here is some information about getting set up in the W.A.D.E. Lab, specifically with respect to office space, access, and communication.

6.1 Office suite

Our lab’s office spaces are all located within a suite (FSH 308). Each student will be assigned office space inside the lab suite, which could be in any one of the three interior offices. Specific desks are assigned based on seniority, such that you will have the opportunity to switch desks after students graduate and move on. Each sit/stand desk has an external monitor, keyboard, and mouse to which you may connect your laptop.

6.2 Keys

Amy will assign you a key to the office suite, which will grant you access to the anteroom and your specific office space inside the suite. Students and post-docs share keys to the MERLab space (MAR 271, 276 and 277); Amy will show you where they are kept. These keys should be returned immediately after you are done with them, so that others may use them when necessary.

6.3 GitHub account

Our lab maintains a so-called “organization” on GitHub here where we host information and data related to the lab website, this lab manual, lab meetings, and specific projects. If you do not already have a free GitHub account, please sign up for one here. After you have established an account, please send your username to Amy so she can add you to the lab organization.
