1 Welcome!

We hope you enjoy your time in the Ryten lab! The goal of this book is to capture the tasks we share as a team and document the things we would have liked to have known throughout our time in the Ryten lab.

1.1 Useful links

The Ryten lab website has all of our backgrounds, developed tools, publications and baby photos.
The Ryten lab GitHub currently is only used to host this book, however in future will hold any other repositories that are common to the Ryten lab.
The Ryten lab Sharepoint. To access this, you must be a member of rytenlab (if you are receiving e-mails from rytenlab@live.ucl.ac.uk, then you are a member). If you are a not a member, let one of the existing members know and we’ll add you.
ICH Laboratory Safety Code. This is hosted on the Ryten lab Sharepoint, thus you must be a member to access it.

1.2 Acknowledgements

This book was made possible thanks to the R package bookdown (Xie 2022).

The below code automatically generates packages.bib, a bibtex format for all the packages listed. If you contribute to this book and include a particular R package in your guide (as with bookdown above), consider adding it to the code chunk and citing it via including [@R-package_name] in the text.

knitr::write_bib(c(
  .packages(), 'bookdown', 'knitr', 'rmarkdown'
), 'packages.bib')

1.3 Joining the Ryten lab website
