I've been meeting to add some new content based on my experience getting started, but since I don't know what I don't know, I'm going to make a list of a few ideas so people can tell me if they're wrong, and then I'll create a PR when I have some free time!

  • Which slack channels to join (lab-meeting, wins, journalclub, any preferred programming languages, possibly others?)
  • Social guidelines for slack (e.g., no gifs in general expect during holidays or pandemics?)
  • Lab prefers slack dms for informal communication rather than email
  • For GitHub, one sentence per line in documentation
  • Teleconferencing software: Casey has uberconference, Penn gives us BlueJeans

The above and then any suggestions (e.g., other slack channels) I'll move into a PR hopefully sometime this week!
