Subject: [Physiofaculty] MBL Physiology Course Information

Dear Students,
     We are writing to follow up on Rob's email with some more detailed information about the Physiology course which starts a week from today!   Attached are three files:   a course handbook with detailed information about many aspects of the course and schedule, the project descriptions for all the faculty (which Rob already sent you but it is so important we are sending it again to make sure you don't miss it.), and finally a file listing the Bootcamp group assignments for the first week.  Everyone will participate in all three Bootcamp training sessions (microscopy, biochemistry, and Matlab) but you have been divided into three groups at random, with each group doing the different two-day sessions in a different sequence.   So please take a look at the schedule so you will know which group you are in.
    We are looking forward to meeting you all next week!  Safe travels!

  Best regards,
            Wallace, Rob, and Jennifer

Subject: [Physiofaculty] MBL Physiology - news - rotations, lightning talks

Dear All,
Jennifer, Wallace and I wanted to welcome you all to this year’s edition of
the Physiology Course at the Marine Biological Laboratory.  Three weeks from
today, we will be in full swing at the MBL.

In preparation for our adventure together this summer, we wanted to pass along
a few logistic notes.  The structure of the course is that the seven weeks is
broken up into a one-week bootcamp at the beginning followed by
three two-week laboratory rotations in which the students will be part of
a given research group.  Attached you will find the schedule of those laboratory
rotations with each of the faculty groups giving you a sense  of the research
projects they have planned for their rotation.  During the first week
of bootcamp, we will ask you to choose your top two choices for the first rotation
and we will repeat this same procedure every two weeks.

On the first evening of the course, Sunday June 14, we will have a welcome
barbecue in order for us all to get acquainted. We will send out more news about
this in the coming few weeks, but it will probably start around 5pm with Jennifer,
Wallace and I providing a greeting and an introduction to what you can expect
for the summer, followed by a nice meal together.

As part of our introduction to the course, we are looking forward
to learning more about each of you.  To accomplish that,
on Monday morning June 15  in the Lillie Auditorium, we are going to have
a “lightning symposium” in which each of you has 90 seconds
to present a single-slide.  Please send us your single slide
by 5pm, Sunday afternoon June 14.  Please send the slide
as a  pdf (and no movies).   We will do this as a continuous
act in which each student’s slide is projected and you have 90 seconds
to explain what you are up to.  At the end of 90 seconds, we will
advance to the next slide and the next speaker will begin
their presentation as they come to the front of the room.
Probably it is best to go for a simple concept: My name is XXX
and I am from YYY.  The question I am trying to answer is…., the reason
we think it is important is…. and the methods we are using are….

We are looking forward to a great summer together.

Rob, Jennifer and Wallace
