Subject: Data Carpentry planning meeting with Dr. Schmidt

We are able choose between the data carpentry or software carpentry workshops. We will select the one that the most students will have interest in.

We need to book the workshop before Dr. Schmidt leaves (in the next two weeks). To do this we will need to finalize a date and book the DBI room. Food and other expenses can be made closer to the event.

BiSA students will put together a slideshow presentation to describe FAANG (Functional Annotation of Animal Genomes), how it originated and what it is (not necessarily as a tutorial). These slides will be sent to Dr. Schmidt for approval and a video will be produced. The video will be produced at UD and be about 10 minutes in length. In the video, slides, photos and animations can be displayed on a green screen.  Deadline will be end of the semester.

Subject: Biotechnology Career Panel Planning Meeting 5

 

We decided on the best way to organize the room for the panel so that we can encourage students to network with the speakers.

Kelly, Priscilla and Wenbo went through the questions that graduate students asked via the google form and rephrased and grouped according to topic. We also added additional questions that we felt would be beneficial to the discussion.

Kelly will create a document including the event agenda discussion questions and send out to speakers before the event.

We went to the store together to shop for the items we decided on in our previous meeting.
