Welcome!

Hello, Kmorun, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

You can find answers to many student questions on our Q&A site, ask.wikiedu.org

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 23:57, 28 January 2016 (UTC)

Greetings!

Hello Katherine!

Just introducing myself as one of your classmates in neurobiology! I hope all is going well!

You can't put licensed logos on your page such as those for Marquette University or the Children's Miracle Network. There are pictures of MU in Wikipedia Commons that you could have used instead. MMBiology (talk) 00:14, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

Dysembryoplastic Neuroepithelial Tumors Outline

Dysembryoplastic Neuroepithelial Tumour Outline (To be posted on someone’s Talk page before the meeting)

Work Plan

Since there are around 9 topics to cover, maybe we should all choose three topics each we want to write about.

Kathy: Diagnosis, Treatment, Outcomes

Emily: Characteristics, Mechanism, Epidemiology

Manpreet: Classification, Risk Factors, History
