My Workspace

When you click the My Workspace option on the caNanoLab menu bar, the My Workspace page appears. As a logged in user, any samples, protocols, and publications that you submitted appear on the page, as well as any items that were shared with you, which appear in green.

All samples, protocols, and publications are shown by default, but you can hide items by clicking the Samples, Protocols, and Publications boxes at the top of the page.

You can view (where applicable), edit, delete from the database, and share listed samples, protocols, and publications.

Green rows in My Workspace indicate that someone has shared the item with you. Rows without color are items that you bookmarked and can share with another user or group.

My Workspace Tables

The My Samples, My Protocols, and My Publications tables display the following information.
