The "Benedum Center for Oncology Informatics", http://www.upci.upmc.edu/internet/benedum/ and the "Center for Pathology Informatics", http://path.upmc.edu/cpi/index.htm offer training in medical informatics and bioinformatics directly and in collaboration with the "Center for Biomedical Informatics", http://www.cbmi.upmc.edu/ at the University of Pittsburgh. Trainees include graduate students in biomedical science, graduate students in medical informatics, postdoctoral fellows, resident physicians in the Department of Pathology at the University of Pittsburgh and visiting residents from other Pathology training programs. This is a working page supporting the development and management of informatics training.

*This and the pages linked below are wiki pages, which are editable as plain text using the Edit link at the top right of each page. The display format is for developing content only; the final display can be in any form. Using these pages we can collaboratively develop and critique the training program content from both inside our network and externally. Editing help, should you wish to know more, is available from the links at the top (a quick intro to editing is presented below). You may also upload files to any page, which will then be linked on that page. Wiki offers a change history and changes can be undone (see view history at the bottom of each page), so don't be reticent to edit. Comments may be added as placeholders and edited later, or inserted for others to see. If you subscribe to a page (link at upper right) you will receive an e-mail whenever it is edited. Offline comments  should be sent to* "Jim Harrison", mailto:jhrsn@pitt.edu

**Formatting rules in a nutshell**

- For the most part, you can just edit text in the usual way.

- Names with internal capitals, ![text in brackets], http://URLs , and structured text-style links are made into hyperlinks

- Text beginning and ending with &#42;, &#42;&#42;, _ or ' is *italic*, **bold**, _underlined_ or 'monospaced' respectively

- One or more non-blank lines are run together form a paragraph; blank lines separate paragraphs

- A one-line "paragraph" followed by a more-indented paragraph makes a heading (use spaces  for indenting)

- A paragraph beginning with - or * or 0. and a space makes a bullet or numbered list item; a more-indented list item starts a sub-list

- HTML tags may be used if necessary

- Some or all of the above rules may be escaped, by putting ! at the beginning of a word or a line

To create a new linked page, type its name as a single word with internal CapiTals or use brackets around the [Page Name]. Then save changes and click the question mark after the page name in the display to edit the new empty page. A leading exclamation mark suppresses: !WoRd or ![bracketed phrase].

Optional note:

Structured text formatting rules in a nutshell

If the top popup menu is present, use the Structured Text page type.
For the most part, you can just edit text in the usual way. HTML tags can be mixed in with Structured Text if desired.
Names with internal capitals, [text in brackets], http://URLs , and structured text-style links are made into hyperlinks
Text beginning and ending with *, **, _ or ' is italic, bold, underlined or monospaced respectively
One or more non-blank lines are run together form a paragraph; blank lines separate paragraphs
A one-line "paragraph" followed by a more-indented paragraph makes a heading (use spaces for indenting)
A paragraph beginning with - or * or 0 and a space makes a bullet or numbered list item; list items must all be indented at the same level
A more-indented list item starts a sub-list or makes a preceding paragraph a heading
Highlighted quotes, comments and annotations inserted into a document can begin and end with HTML <blockquote>...</blockquote> tags
If a paragraph ends in '::' and is followed by more indented text, the indented text will be displayed in monospaced font without formatting (as inside HTML <pre> tags) for as long as the indentation continues.
Footnote citations are entered in text as numbers in square brackets '[1]' (no quotes) and the footnote itself is placed on a line that begins '.. [1]' and is followed by the footnote content. Footnotes can be anywhere in the document. Citation numbers and footnotes are bidirectionally linked.
Some or all of the above rules may be escaped, by putting ! at the beginning of a word or a line
