Shortlisting
Took longer than expected but Jannetta has by now published the results.
New ideas: Zoltan (NW)

- Won't be creating DNA sequences by April
- Don't talk over people in meetings
- Day before meeting - circulate Agenda, previous action points and minutes.
- Start of meeting: revisit minutes - does anyone have any problems with previous minutes? People report on progress on action points.
- Next meeting on Friday at 4.10 p.m.
