From mtang at snf.stanford.edu Tue Nov 4 07:25:13 2003 From: mtang at snf.stanford.edu (Mary Tang) Date: Tue, 04 Nov 2003 07:25:13 -0800 Subject: Process Staff Meeting Message-ID: <3FA7C4D8.904BB384@snf.stanford.edu> Hi all -- So... Pizza is scheduled for Wednesday (tomorrow) at 11:30 (it was either that or 12:30 -- guess it's a busy day for Greg.) But the meeting will start whenever everyone arrives (hopefully, by noon, as originally scheduled). We are in 215. Agenda as before (see below.) Please, if you can, bring a list of projects you are working on to share with everyone (Ted and Len -- you, of course, don't have to bring lists, but your inputs to the group are always welcome.) The projects may be things you're working on your own or, better yet, team projects involving other staff or lab members (whether they know it or not.) Let's use this as an opportunity to coordinate our activities. (Uh oh, that sounds terribly "corporate", but we do need to do something along these lines...) 'til then -- Mary *********************************************************** 1. Metrics that would be useful (training or staff activity recharges? Usage on specific tools?) and routine reports which can be derived from the Coral databases that we can now access. 2. Projects. Let's compile a list of projects that process staff members are working on. It can be something you're working on by yourself or with someone else (another staff member, a labmember, a faculty member). It can be something to streamline training, improve documentation, characterize processes -- just about anything that is proactive. 3. Regular reports. We used to do these weekly, but needless to say, we've fallen off the track (and I'm just about the guiltiest party.) I propose a monthly report -- maybe a regular project update? but let's discuss this. -- Mary X.

As you know she encounter a serious car problem on her way to Idaho. She will let me know about Thursday as they have to pick up their car from Oregon on the way back home. mahnaz From mtang at snf.stanford.edu Wed Nov 12 18:08:54 2003 From: mtang at snf.stanford.edu (Mary Tang) Date: Wed, 12 Nov 2003 18:08:54 -0800 Subject: Absence from lab Message-ID: <3FB2E7B6.9F89662A@snf.stanford.edu> Hi all -- Just wanted to let you know -- it's my turn at home with Harry tomorrow (Thursday) so I won't be in. I'll be in Friday morning at least, though may be out in the afternoon if he's still not fit for daycare. Mary -- Mary X.

We've still got one free course ($450 value, I think). And we've some STAP funds available. Let me know if you're interested and maybe we can swing a group discount again. Mary (Things that seem particularly relevant for us: CMP fundamentals -- although we won't be getting one of these for SNF, it is useful to know about this method, since so many research projects here rely on it.

My apologies. Instead, may I suggest a meeting on Wed., Dec. 3? I'll compile the list of projects we discussed and send it out -- we can discuss setting goals and dates for these projects. Even more importantly, we should also discuss plans for the SNF holiday party (scheduled for Monday, 12/15). (Anything else you'd like to add?) Mary -- Mary X.
