+
+'''''Description:'''''
+
+PsychoPy is an open-source application allowing to run a wide range of neuroscience, psychology and psychophysics experiments. It’s a free, powerful alternative to Presentation™ or e-Prime™, which use the Coder interface to write extremely powerful experiments in the widely-used Python programming language. The platform is independence and that is achieved through the use of the wxPython widget library for the application and OpenGL for graphics calls. PsychoPy runs on a wide variety of hardware, Windows, OS X or Linux, and it really does benefit from a decent graphics card. You should get an ATI or nVidia card that supports OpenGL 2.0, and to avoid built-in Intel graphics chips. 
+The first time PsychoPy was written in 2003 as a proof of concept that a high-level scripring language could generate experimental stimuli in real time. It is continually updated with 5-10 releases each year, containing new features and bug fixes. It has many versions and the last one was released June 2017. 
+There are many advantages to using PsychoPy, such as:
+
+       Simple install process
+       Precise timing
+       Huge variety of stimuli generated in real-time:
+       linear gratings, bitmaps constantly updating
+       text 
+       sounds 
+       Platform independent - run the same script on Win, OS X or Linux
+       Flexible stimulus units 
+       Coder interface for those that like to program
+       Builder interface for those that don’t like
+       Multi-monitor support

+'''New contributor'''
+PsychoPy has official workshops that can include anyone who wants to participate, and want to start using Python (and PsychoPy) in studies in behavioral sciences. During the academic 2016 - 2017 there were three workshops organized. For details about new workshops you can follow the link: http://www.psychopy.org/resources/workshops.html#officialworkshops
