''TO DO:  create a tutorial video based on this script''

The basic logic for CCGA pages is that there is basic Gene and Protein (and mutation) molecular biology-type information on the “Gene Pages”, and that there is Disease and clinical-type information type on the “Disease pages”.  The CCGA is especially interested in curation the fusion genes/mutations that arise in disease, esp. in the hematological cancers.  However, the dividing line between "Gene/Protein/Mutation" information and "Disease" information is sometime hard to determine.  These guidelines will help you determine what information goes where.  Please note that you should plan to spend between 4-8 hours in curating the information onto a single gene page, more if you are unfamiliar with the gene.
