  - Go back to Projects folder on GitHub
 
  - Click on “Create new file” button
 
  - Type

      - When naming the file, please ensure there are no spaces/special characters in the folder or file name
 
    
   
  - Paste the previously copied content of project template page into your new 
README.md 
  - Update at least your project’s title, category, key investigators, location, and project description sections
