From westerman at purdue.edu Mon Oct 5 06:52:19 2009 From: westerman at purdue.edu (Rick Westerman) Date: Mon, 05 Oct 2009 09:52:19 -0400 Subject: [Purdue-pm] Next PM meeting in a week Message-ID: <4AC9FA13.2070109@purdue.edu> We have an 'out-of-band' (i.e., not the usual 3rd Tuesday) PM meeting next week on Oct. 13th during the usual noon hour. Please sign up for talks as you can give them. I won't be able to attend however I hope that the rest of you can. Last month, despite the lack of long talks and in spite of the bemoaning of some people before the meeting, we had a very delightful time. Perhaps because of the lack of pressure of having to race through longer talks we took our time analyzing code in detail. For my talk -- originally scheduled for 5 minutes -- we spent a fruitful 20-25 minutes looking through the code discussing the pros and cons of it. -- Rick Westerman westerman at purdue.edu Bioinformatics specialist at the Genomics Facility.
