Adding a New Trainee Page to TAC-HEP

All TAC-HEP Trainees should create and then maintain a page

TAC-HEP website

In order to add your information, we request you to please supply a photo ( First_Name-Last_Name.jpg or .png - 320x240 pixels) and a paragraph summarizing your project’s goals. You should submit a pull request with the photo, a markdown file with the summary information above, and your proposal to this repo.

• Add a photo named First-Last.jpg or .png to the assets/images/trainees folder. It should be 320x240 pixels and in general should be 150kB or less.
• Add a “<your github username>.md” file to the trainees folder in the website repository. See the example below.

The markdown file has a part a the top (delimited by “—”) called the frontmatter. This is described below. In the main body of the markdown file you should have the following sections:

• Biography and Interests - Biographical information such as where you were an undergraduate and when you started graduate school, plus information about your interests (physics, analysis, software and computing)
• Project - this should be a description of the project you are working on as a TAC-HEP trainee
• Recent Accomplishments - this may be blank ath beginning, but should eventually grow to a bullet point list of things you accomplished on your project (including links to related presentations, repositories in github, etc.)
• Mentors - this should be a bullet point list of your mentors (name and institution). It should include both someone at your university and someone at one of the DOE labs.
• Traineeship dates - date at which your traineeship began and is expected to end

Notes

• In the markdown file you create, ensure you set the “active” attribute to True – (i.e. active: True). Otherwise, your entry will not appear on our Trainees page.
• The date format for start and end dates should be – YYYY-MM-DD – i.e. 2021-12-31

Presentations

When you start, you just need to include the “presentations:” line. The subsequent indented lines above can be omitted. They are included above so that you can see the structure when you have a presentation to add.

The meaning of the fields is the following:

• title - the title of the talk: you made need to place it in double quotes, if certain characters like a colon (“:”) are included in the title
• date - the date on which the presentation was made, in the numeric format “YYYY-MM-DD”
• url - this should be a direct URL to the presentation or page containing the presentation. For Indico, link to the contribution, not the PDF or other links.
• meeting - the name of the meeting
• meetingurl - the URL for the meeting in which the presentation was made
• focus-area - optionally list the relevant focus area for this presentation, using its short name, i.e. one of [ia,ssl,ssc,doma,as,osglhc]. Must be a yaml list if more than one is present.
