Monday

Gurpal gave a modeling presentation - indicating the parameters that are needed, and how the wetlab will be incorporated into the model.

Laura contacted Science World (for human practices), and we will be doing a presentation and workshop on synthetic biology. This still needs to be planned.

Joe's started his SDM on alpha-pinene, but it hasn't been working. He's been troubleshooting (DNA contamination? Enzyme is too old? Wrong annealing temperature?)

The team agrees that the amount of e-mails is ridiculous; everyone is getting lost! Laura volunteers to develop e-mail lingo to organize the e-mails and to help direct e-mail traffic to the appropriate people.
