5 5  Users can access the Lab from the //Lab //navigation element in every collab that they are a member of (not from a public collab if they are not a member of its team).  Once in the Lab, users see all of the files in the Drive of the corresponding collab (including the notebook files with the ***.ipynb** extension which can be opened in JupyterLab) and can navigate to the Drive of other collabs. More instructions can be found in the [[Tutorial section>>doc:.Tutorial.WebHome]].

9 +In the Lab, a user runs a notebook in a container, i.e. an environment isolated from other notebook executions of other users. All the notebooks of a user on a given server run in the same container. So files produced by one notebook can be accessed from another notebook but only by the same user. The context of a container is lost (including files stored in the container) when the container is reset.

11 +The Drive is mounted in the container as an additional partition (at /shared) and files in the Drive are not affected by container resets.
12 +
13 +The term "Kernel" in the Jupyter notebook environment indicates the language interpreter used for a given notebook. The Lab currently supports the Python 3 language and others may be added in the future.
