Every lab member needs to... (edit)

1. add personal inormation if they wish (last name, email, maybe link to their website)
2. update the list of materials with what they buy, or know of in the lab.
3. add their contributions to the methodologies and intruments sections
4. add their contribution to the literature reviews
5. verify their #individual responsibilities
6. add anything else they think should be on this website

Suggested training program

To keep the lab running smoothly we need an "inhouse training program", developed by all of us through this site, and implemeted by the lab manager. What to train in:

1. knowing what maintenance work is expected from each of us within our individual lab area
2. knowing what portion of the materials list we are individually responsible for updating
3. how to use the folders (labels, etc)
4. where the garbage cans go, what goes in them (recycling)
5. the "unknown table", how it works
6. knowing how to use this site and edit it
7. know website editing etiquette
8. go through a rotation to briefly learn everybody else's methodology / instruments
9. other ideas? add them here...
