Stage 1: You request an account.

Prerequisite: Read the Draft Statement of Fundamental Policies for Collaboration.

To request a BiomedGT Wiki account, follow these steps:

  1. Send an e-mail to the BiomedGT administrator at BGTsupport.
  2. Include the following information in your e-mail message:
  • Name
    Note: Collaboration with the BiomedGT Wiki requires the use of real names unless project management grants special and unusual permission.
  • E-mail address
  • Work phone number
  • Professional affiliation
  • Domains of interest for collaboration, included in both the subject line and the body
  • An attached copy of your curriculum vitae.

Once you send the e-mail, the request is considered pending.

Stage 2: BiomedGT Wiki Administrator reviews your request.

After receiving your request, the BiomedGT Wiki administrator follows these steps:

  1. Reviews your publication record online.
  2. Determines whether you have submitted all required information and contacts you by e-mail or phone if additional information is needed.
  3. Processes your request and marks your application as either approved or rejected:
  • If approved, sends your user name and temporary password by e-mail.
  • If rejected, notifies you to explain the reason.

Stage 3: You log in for the first time.

Once you have received your user name and password, follow these steps to log in, add your e-mail address to your profile, and change settings as desired:

  1. On any wiki page, click the log in/create account link.
  2. Enter your newly assigned user name and temporary password.
  3. Once you are logged in, click the my preferences link in the upper right.
    The Preferences page opens.
  4. In the User Profile section, enter your e-mail address in the E-mail field.
    Although your e-mail address is optional, storing it in your profile enables others to contact you when necessary. It is also required if you want to have an email sent to you when one of your "watched" pages changes.
  5. (Optional but recommended) Change your password.
  6. Click the Save button.
