Introduction
Thank you for your interest in contributing to this community effort. Please find information below of potential use to you as an author.
- For pages that do not yet have any content, authors will be connected with an Associate Editor based on their disease section(s) of interest.
- Authors will be given a username and password by the Associate Editor.
- Author names will be added to the top of any page(s) that they wish to complete so others know they’re in process.
- Pages are based on current WHO entries and contain pre-loaded templates (of note, if there’s a non-WHO entity of importance, a new page can be created).

- There are two types of pages:
- Disease category overview pages (for example see Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) and Related Precursor Neoplasms, which are summaries of a group of diseases with links to all other relevant content.
- Disease-specific pages (for example see any links on the AML page), which is for individual disease entities and much more detailed. S For more details on how you use the site to be an author, please see this video (http://www.ccga.io/index.php/Video_Tutorial) (which is likely the easiest) or the attached PowerPoint.

Policy for Inclusion of Figures on the CCGA Site
Use of illustrative figures on the Compendium of Cancer Genome Aberrations (CCGA) is encouraged. This policy defines the process for inclusion of a figure.
- For figures created by an individual or provided from their lab, the PHI must be removed and the submitter’s name and institution included in the figure legend.
- For figures from any other source (such as a website or published paper), a link to the image content, if openly accessible, can be used on the CCGA page. If such a link is not possible, written permission must be obtained by the person creating the CCGA page before addition to the page. This written permission should be shared with the Associate Editor of the related section and copied to ccga@cancergenomics.org. The figure legend should include the appropriate reference and confirmation that permission was obtained.
