## Add posts

It's very easy to add post. All the posts are located in `_posts` folder. It arrangement is based on
date. Each post can be written in markdown format. You just have to state headers before writing: `title`, `description` and `categories`. `description` will be shown when you share on social media like Facebook or twitter. See the following headers:

title: Summer School in Computational Sensory-Motor Neuroscience (CoSMo) description: all links to CoSMo summer school in computational neuroscience materials categories: scientists

We have 4 categories: `scientists`, `students`, `discussion`, `blog` you can choose and this will be rendered to different location.

## How to add posts

- **Directly edit on Github**, you can simply go to `_posts` and click `New file` then put some markdown file e.g. `2016-02-03-post-name.md` and start writing blog post. Github also allows you to preview it so it's nice for people who don't want to clone the repo. 

- **Clone the repository**, kind of the same as directly add post on Github. You just have to clone the repository. Then add new post file, commit and push to the repo.

The changes will take approximately half a minute to render. You can see the new posts or changes on [Lemas Lab Group](https://lemas-lab-group.github.io/)!

## Add new publications

All publications from the lab are located in `publications.md`. Please upload new publication on your own!
