I received an email from Adam Rivers, a computational biologist with the USDA Agricultural Research Service in Gainesville, asking if we'd be interested in partnering with him to run a workshop open to both UF and USDA participants some time in August. (I believe Adam has remotely joined a board meeting or two in the past.) I told Adam we'd discuss this at our next meeting, and I've invited him to join us.

For backup laptops: how far can we get on iPads borrowed from the UF Libraries? I'm guessing not far, but I figured I'd bring it up.

Ethan White is happy to loan out (up to 2) extra laptops from his lab for us to use (provided we handle wiping the hard drives and doing setup).
