Organization
Every Monday morning we hold a round table. A
round table begins with a business meeting where we discuss matters of general
interest and solve problems. During a round-table, every member in the lab
briefly reviews events and results since the last round table and figure goals
for the next interval. Round tables allow us to keep current between major
research presentations, and ensure communication and exchange of help and
ideas among lab members. Each lab member has a regular weekly meeting time
(Petit-seminar) with Kazu, as well as frequent informal contact. Friday afternoon
we hold a research presentation by a member of the lab or a visitor as appropriate.
