 If anyone needs to reschedule (or change title), please check with Cindy as far in advance as possible. If you are going to discuss articles, please give copies of one or two key articles a week in advance to Cindy or place copies in the journal area of WAB5 or HIM4. Reports about major scientific meetings will be given on either the Monday or Thursday closest to the return of the participants. Please make sure that our schedule reflects this.

Church Lab Journal Club

        **************  NOTE TIME AND ROOM CHANGE  ************

The purpose of the Church Lab journal club is to explore various topics related to functional genomics and computational biology.  Suggested formats for presentations include analyses of relevant journal articles (current or historical), tutorials (software packages, web sites, statistical algorithms), brain-storming sessions on how to apply new techniques within the lab, etc.

General journal Clubs are held from 10- 11:30 am every other Friday in the Alpert 4th floor conference room. Network modeling discussions in Mudd 304A conference room..  Each week 1 person presents and another person brings food.  Journal articles should be distributed 1 week in advance.  Attendance is open to all.
