Present: Michael, Ernest, Ahra, Gautham
Time: 10AM
Location: 621 Stanley - Meeting was moved due to room availability.

Topics:
Discussed everyone's progress so far.
Began making the update of our progress for Friday's ~5 minute presentation.

Action Items:
-Read and provide feedback for everyone's drafts. Focus on content and clarity for now, but if you catch obvious spelling/typos, bring those up too.
-Make sure you know enough about our project for the talk on Friday. Everyone should be familiar enough our project to give the talk, even if they are not talking.
-Decide if you want to volunteer to be the first speaker. Ernest has agreed to do the second part.
-Ernest will post the power point we have so far. Review and help edit the presentation and make backup slides if you have any additional information.

Next Meetings: Friday 16 November - Discussion section presentation at 11 AM (458 Evans?)
Future group meeting time TBD.

Meeting Minutes 10/30/2007

Present: Michael, Ernest, Ahra, Gautham
Time: 10AM
Location: 421 Stanley

Topics:
Decided to write the paper first and base the talk off of the paper. This will make it easier to pick the key points for our talk.
Divided up the work for the paper based on the outline sections. Coordinate with anyone who overlaps your section to make sure everything is covered appropriately. We will do the last 2 sections after we choose a material.

Action Items:
-Write a first draft of your section(s) before the meeting next week Thursday (Nov 8). Make it as long or short as you deem appropriate to include the relevant information. When you are done writing, post it in the google group so that others can access it. Be prepared to briefly present what you wrote to the group at the next meeting.
-Continue to do research if there is further information you need to adequately do your section. We especially need more quantitative materials information about possible materials and brain ECM.
-Think of ways to apply the theories we learned in class to the problem at hand. For example, consider protein adsorption to various possible materials using DLVO theory.

Next Meeting: Thursday Nov. 8, 10AM, 221 Stanley

New outline

Please review Project Outline 3.3 in the Google Groups. Note the thing in yellow has to have a citation. I don't know what it would be so if you do, please add it in. Also if you have other citations please add them. At 11 PM I will be printing it out, so please look it over by then and let me know.

Don't forget to do that library sheet by tomorrow. Good luck with the homework if you haven't done it all yet.

Outline modified

possible materials/methods section is modified.
File can be accessed on google group website.
