Week 2 : 4th of July to 10th of July
Monday
The day is mainly used in a series of lectures on the use of programming languages for biological systems (see [http://lepton.research.microsoft.com/webgec/ GEC] (Requires MS Silverlight on Windows or Mac, seems to work on Linux with Moonlight), followed by a workshop to put some of the ideas into practice. Much fun and head-scratching ensue when we model a logic gate, within a bacterium, on a computer (!). The team are keen to get down to more brainstorming; as a result of our all-round keen-ness, the working day seems to be steadily creeping longer.
Tuesday
A general laboratory safety lecture in the morning, with some emphasis on the global safety concerns that come with easier access to recombinatorial techniques. More admin is to follow with the set-up of our lab; much confusion results as years-worth of accumulated equipment is unpacked, haphazardly inventoried and replaced according to an esoteric categorising system.
More brainstorming in the afternoon - it's good to see that our thoughts and efforts are spontaneously channelling into particular areas of interest; hope that a fantastic idea will materialise and fear that it won't, in equal measure.
Wednesday
