The lab

The lab still needs a lot of cleaning up.  There are a lot of things from when things came to a halt in 2010 that need to be cleared out, including most of the material in the freezers.  I am slowly getting around to things, mostly clearing out the space that we use the most: the fly and computer benches and the bench where we video behavior and one molecular bench.  We are doing a lot of phenotype work on two projects, the elegans/gunungcola project and the melanogaster project; myself, Rocio, and a group of undergraduates working with me.  They are both huge projects and everything we are doing is working well.  I just need more time there.  When summer runs out, my lab time largely runs out...
