Progress...

I'm spending the morning at a workshop on getting NIH grants, sponsored by some consortium of UBC research administrators.  It should be time well spent, as I plan on submitting a proposal next fall to get money for ambitious work on DNA uptake.   

Then maybe a bit of the afternoon can be spent working with the post-doc to finish up the E. coli-Sxy manuscript, so it can be sent (hopefully for the last time) to our former-post-doc co-author in Ireland.

Then a day of thesis defense (someone else's student) and an always-enjoyable meeting evaluating proposals for interdisciplinary workshops.

Then maybe, just maybe, I'll have time to take a long-overdue look at our computer simulation manuscript.
