Updating Your SoP Directory Profile Page

You can update:

• Your office (e.g., 2501 Rennebohm Hall)
• Your office phone # (e.g., 608-263-4859)
• your lab phone #

Important Note:  Please consult the IIT team before checking/unchecking a check-box in the Research area, as the choice you make will impact how/where your data gets displayed on the SoP website.

Make sure to hit the Save button at the bottom of the page when you're done editing.

Fill in only the field(s) that are relevant to your job/role. If you add text to a particular field (even a single space), that area will show up as a tab on your profile page (e.g., Bio, Research, Clinical Practice) - see screenshot below.  Any alteration to a field (even the addition of a blank space) will activate the affiliated tab to display on your page.
If you accidentally activate a field that you don't want, contact IIT for assistance.

Current Work field (for research faculty): The text in this field will be displayed on your division's Research web page, next to your photo and contact info. It should be brief - (1-2 short sentences, max). 

At the start of your brief research description, please add "Research Interests" or "Clinical Practice:" in bold - (see screenshot below).

Adding images:  In some instances faculty may wish to include an image or diagram relating to their research in this area. 
If you're interested in incorporating an image on your page, please contact Sally Griffith-Oh in IIT for assistance.

Added links will be displayed in the left column below your contact info on your profile page.

You can populate this area with links to:

NOTE: If you copy your pubs list from a Word doc and paste it into the pubs text field, you'll notice that the formatting (bold, numbered list, italics, etc.) will get stripped out.
This is because the formatting code used by Word (and other word processing programs) messes up the html code used by your web browser.

- You will need to reformat your pubs list (re-add bold & italicization styling). 
- Please do not use underlined text - underlining should only be used for linked text.
- When adding DOI links, set the target to "new window" so that viewers can easily return to your profile page.

Make sure to hit the Update button to save your changes.
