IT platform guide - ganong-noel/lab_manual GitHub Wiki

google docs

  • We record meetings in google docs as “yyyy-mm-dd person project”
  • If there are todo items from the meetings, those are logged in github, not here

slack

  • We use slack to keep each other posted about things
  • Slack is not a system of record. Anything important that we will want to reference in the future should go in github.

lyx

  • We write papers and slides in Lyx

overleaf

  • We also sometimes write papers and slides in overleaf

disclosures from Chase

  • Files go in analysis/input/disclose/<date>/ in master branch
    • for tex tables and individual pdf plots, make a second copy of these files in the the analysis/input/disclose/latest/ folder. (do not put Excel workbooks, PDF chartbooks and HTML renderings of tables into this folder.)

lab storage

  • Github
    • Project repo -- code, statistical output, paper, slides. To keep the repo lightweight, large files (> 100MB) are stored in a separate repo named data_<type_of_data>. When accessing these data, use a name like outside_data_path to describe the file path for the data in order to clarify that you are using data not included in the repo.
    • Data repo
  • Google Drive
    • Google docs (e.g. notes and meetings)
    • Prior literature
    • Correspondence
    • Anything not explicitly allocated to github
