Introduction to the NCI Wiki

The goal of the wiki is to allow users to collaborate on a designated forum about topics of interest. Individual users do all the work of contributing, which makes the wiki a "self serve" way to share information, where the community can read helpful tips and tricks from others about subjects like adopting tools.

The Tips on this page explain the basics of editing and other key tasks in using the wiki. For technical support you may contact NCICB Application Support. There is a list of resources for more in-depth information beyond the Tips.

You can contribute content if you have an account (to request one, click the Log in or New Account link at the top of the page).

Note: The wiki is "self serve" and therefore some content may be invalid. While the wiki is monitored, always trust the content with caution.

Tips

Use the "Details..." links to see the tips that interest you. You are welcome to add a page to share your tip or to add a comment to request one or to request training; the NCI Wiki team will respond. (The tips are on the "child pages" at the bottom of this page; Details... links lead to them all.)
