31 Degrees and Sunny

I've made it to La Jolla! It's 31 degrees celsius and sunny.

We had the first meeting with the external collaborator today at the Torrey Pines Institute of Molecular Studies to discuss findings from the In Silico experimentation performed throughout this project. Discussions were free flowing and positive and centred around 3 main areas:
  1. Future Work for In Silico experimentation using the simulator
  2. Potential journal papers resulting from the current set of experimental results and the future work
  3. Potential avenues of funding to progress the work through postdoctoral research grants
I'm out in La Jolla for a week and this was the first day of work. There's an awful lot to cover throughout the rest of the week, in particular a number of quick(ish) updates required of the simulator and further experimentation, documenting of the future work discussions into a workplan and requirements document for the MSc student who will continue work on the simulator once I commence my PhD research on another biological system.

Having completed the report, the project is now entering the end game, and focus will soon turn to the After Action Review.
