Thanks Hans! Writing for the more general audience is tough, so I hope I did justice to the study. 😀 Hope all's well and thanks for checking it out!

I was not a fan of the weekly lab meeting for a long time, but for the past few years I've been doing once a week lab lunch with no particular meeting agenda. It's been great: Everyone knows who's in the lab, we talk about whatever is going on in lab/classes, and food is always good.
