Once the form is signed and stamped by Prof. Kühn, you can visit the key access center situated on the Campus (ask a colleague or Julian for help). #### Workplace and computer Depending on the length of your stay, you will be assigned a mobile or fixed office space and will get access to a computer. A centralized infrastructure for that is currently in preparation, so we are sorry, if there are problems with getting you either. #### If you want/have to work with your own Computer Please download and install Virtualbox https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads. You will work with a virtual Ubuntu prepared with all the software required for your work at the Unit. If you are motivated to get everything prepared yourself and work native on your system, please install and familiarize yourself with the tools listed here: https://osf.io/qwn5b/wiki/Software This is it, you are set. The following steps will depend on the nature of your visit. You will most likely get a dataset to work with. Another wiki entry will explain how to start a new data analysis project.
