Lab feedback

Filamentous cells

Action points

• Steven and Harsh: remind Wendy to send off DNA.
• Rachel and Phil: Characterisation data for filamentous cells brick needs to be put on the wiki and the parts registry.
• Get ready for the talk on the 15th October.
• Judging form is due in three weeks, but isn't available yet.
• Younus: Make sure the poster is the right resolution and ratio for A0. Save as .pdf when sending for printing. Leave enough time to check the pre-print (2 or 3 days). Probably needs to be 10x higher resolution than you might think, so it isn't blocky even at very high zoom. Use vector graphics.

Next meeting

• Wednesday, 6th October, 4 p.m.
• Chair: Rachel, Computer: Deena, Minutes: Phil
