    Summer 2006 Meeting times

    CASP7 season started Monday 8 May 2006

    For summer 2006 we will have multiple weekly meetings:

    All lab meetings will take place in PSB 305 (the new conference room), rather than the lab. Bread and tea will continue to be in the lab.

    The lab meetings started at 2 during World Cup season, but are back to 1, now that the World Cup is over. (Exception, Wed tutorials remain at 2, since the SURFIT students have a conflict on Wednesdays.)

    Summer 2006 individual meeting schedule

    Individual project meetings have not been set yet. I will have individual meetings only for non-CASP projects (protein design, grant writing, advancement to candidacy, thesis research, ...).

    For Spring 2006, we are meeting Fridays at 2 pm in Baskin 310 until we move to PSB (last meeting in Baskin on April 28). Thereafter we will meet in PSB 313 (still Fridays at 2).

    For Spring 2006, we are meeting 2-3 in Baskin 310 Physical Sciences Building (PSB) 313 on Fridays.
