About this wiki
I'm currently working to transfer all the information from the crash course onto this wiki. Here's why I think that's a good idea:
 * It's easier to access a website than a file on a stored drive.
 * Edits to this wiki will be available immediately, not just when new versions are uploaded.
 * A wiki is more scalable than a document.
 * A lot of the things currently buried in the Box drive could potentially be moved here. For example, user pages could replace user slides, there could be a page for presentation schedules, etc.
 * A wiki is easier to search for specific information.
 * This wiki is hosted by a non-profit organization (Miraheze)
 * You can edit this wiki from the same place that you read it.
 * This runs on the exact same backend as Wikipedia, which means you can learn how to edit Wikipedia articles―a valuable way to give back to the community.

Here is a list of some of the headings found in the old crash-course document. Red links have no content at all yet (probably because the formatting is complicated and I'm doing this in my copious spare time). Please feel free to help contribute. We just ask that you read the editing guidelines first.
 * Intro to Research
 * Lab Safety
 * Coherent Diffraction Imaging
 * Signal Processing
 * Guide to scientific coding
 * Plane-wave CDI
 * Ptychography algorithms
 * Working with optics
 * How to read scientific papers
 * How to present research
 * List of useful acronyms
 * List of useful software and web resources
 * Mathematical Foundations
