23 September 2008 Lab Meeting Agenda† Jaephil's research report. † Announcements
1. We are not changing the sample collection procedures at this time.
6. We are still going to split the VTM in our hood and take it over there.
† COBRA
And demonstrate ability to deliver the specified amount from the microfluidics.
