Contents
The Colleague New Entry/Update Form allows you to send information about yourself to CGD.
If you are adding a new colleague entry to CGD, fill in the information that you would like to be publicly available. Note that Last Name, First Name, and E-mail address are required.
Name and Contact Information
Enter your last name and first name in the boxes provided. If you have a suffix (eg. Jr., Sr.), choose it from the pulldown menu. You may also enter your Job Title, Profession, Organization, and Address information.
If you are a resident of the United States or Canada, select your State or Province from the pulldown menus. Do not enter anything in the Region box. If you are not a resident of the United States or Canada, you may enter a Region and a Country.
You may also enter phone or fax numbers and may specify whether the number is a lab phone, department fax, etc. by using the pulldown menu.
Other Information
- Associates/Colleagues: There are three separate sections
where you can list associates or collaborators. You can use the three different sections to distinguish yourself from being a member of a lab versus being a P.I. You can also list your other collaborators or associates.
- If you are a supervisor, advisor, or P.I., enter the the
names of students, post-docs, technicians, and other lab members in
the FIRST section under "Your Associates/Collaborators".
- If you have a supervisor, advisor, or P.I., you can enter the name(s) in the SECOND section under "Your Associates/Collaborators".
- In the THIRD section under "Your Associates/Collaborators", you may enter any other collaborators or associates that you did not list in the previous sections (ie. associates who are not members of your lab or your P.I.).
- Research Interests:
You may enter a brief (less than 250 words) description of your research interests in this section.
- Keywords:
You may enter keywords that describe your research, such as nuclear import or biological databases.
- Comments: You may enter any comments or announcements that you would like to be publicly displayed at CGD, such as "I will be on sabbatical from June 2000 until January 2001." You may also use this box to send a message to the CGD curator who will be reviewing your Entry/Update.
