2011 Lab Pumpkins

This week we indulged in our principal lab tradition, the carving of the pumpkin. As you can see, another great round of artwork. Mine is the owl on the left.

Otherwise, there’s been a lot going on of late. I’ve been doing a lot of reviewing recently- an NSF full proposal and several manuscripts . My labmates have also been really productive, so I’ve gotten to view drafts of a software manual, a graduate school admissions proposal, and an NSF Doctoral Dissertation Improvement Grant (DDIG).

We are starting to think about next field season already! Field assistant ads will probably go out within the next couple of weeks.

I’m also going to start finding away to post my Matlab code here on the website. I’m definitely a hack when it comes to coding, but I’d guess some of the things I’ve figured out may be useful to someone else.

I can’t believe it is almost November already!
