'''getting started'''
+
-
* the students prepare tutorials and present these on '''Monday July 7th''' to the team (have a look at the teaching resources below for inspiration) --> '''room 00.210 of the LBI from 10h to 15h, we'll go to Alma at noon'''
+

+
-

+
-
** BioBricks (how to work with them - standard cloning procedures - measurement...): Elke, Jan
+
-

+
-
* wet lab
+
-
** the team will work in the CMPG labs
+
-
** ensure lab guidance continuity
+
-
** all students have lab coats
+
-
** yet to decide how the costs will be arranged (also, do we order enzymes, disposables etc. especially for iGEM?)
+
-
* dry lab
+
-
** a desktop pc will be installed in room 91.13 (internet available)
+
-
** Jonas and Antoine explore the possibilities of the wiki (a.o. notebook, templates (eg. digest, PCR... cfr [http://parts.mit.edu/igem07/index.php/Going_through_our_wiki Paris 2007]), ...) --> [https://2008.igem.org/Team:KULeuven/Discussion#Wiki.2FNotebook.2F..._.28Jonas.2FAntoine.29 '''Results''']

+
-
* meeting arrangements
+
-
** room 91.13 of the LBI is reserved for iGEM for the whole summer holiday (not on Monday 12-13 and Thursday 12-13)--> ''to do: clean + writing board + check who has access'' - also room 00.210 is reserved till July 25th (in replacement of 00.42). This room has wireless internet.  --[[User:Sigriddk|Sigriddk]] 10:02, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

During orientation week, the timer project (PI control of drug production and timer for cell death) and the D project (with regulator and sRNA or with stable/unstable - gfp/TEV protease) will be assessed carefully (see the [[Team:KULeuven/Brainstorm|brainstorm page]] for an overview of these ideas).

nickvd: I propose to start working on the project the first week of July (read: Monday 7th). In that way we can get some rest after the exams, recharge our batteries so we can start working with a clear mind and full of motivation!
+
-
 
+
-
*That would be excellent, because I' m going to Werchter... So I'm available starting from Monday 7th --[[User:Hanne|Hanne]] 20:05, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
+
-
* I am also back on the 7th. --[[user:andim|Andim]]
+
-
* ...
+
-
 
+
-
Are there people that can start on Monday 30th of June or somewhere that week? For instance because they have few exams, don't like holidays... ;) For some BioBricks playing-around, preliminary testing, toy-modeling etc. --Inge
+
-
* My last exam is on the 25th... I'll have a headache for the first two days and then I would like to review certain things on PID-controllers and Matlab, so I figure I should be able to start soon. --[[User:Avdmeers|Antoine]]
+
-
* I can start the 3rd of July (and perhaps the 1st also) [[user:Bmoeyaert|Benjamien]]
+
-
* I should be able to start the 1st of July. [[user:BNathalie|Nathalie]]
+
-
* Normally I can also start the 30th of june [[user:Jotaro|Jan]]
+
-
* I don't mind messing about a bit that first week, so no problem for me [[user:Zeunas|Jonas]]
+
-
 
+
-
== Planned summer holidays==
+
-
* IT: August 2nd-17th
+
-
* [[User:Bmoeyaert|Benjamien]]: August 2nd-17th
+
-
* nickvd: no holiday plans, only moving plans the first week of July. I would also prefer to end somewhere around September 10th to get some rest before my thesis year.
+
-
* Stefanie: no holiday plans, only moving plans the first week of July.
+
-
* [[User:Hanne|Hanne]]: August 11th-17th, August 6th and a short minibreak.
+
-
* [[User:Zeunas|Jonas]]: I'm out of town September 15-21 and end of july (a little bit more precise now 21<sup>st</sup> of july till 1<sup>st</sup> of august), no other plans yet
+
-
* Elke: September 12th-19th
+
-
* [[User:Jotaro|Jan]]: In the beginning of september I'm probably expected to start in the lab with my thesis, but maybe I can also work a week for my thesis in august so I can also participate a week in IGEM in september. I'll try to arrange what fits with my promotor, but it's too early to say. I don't have holiday plans yet, but if there's a gap when there's no work for IGEM, I'll probably go on holiday :)
+
-
* [[User:BNathalie|Nathalie]]: I only planned something from June 28th until July 1st. So normally, I will be available all the time.
+
-
* [[User:maarten|maarten]]: no holiday plans so far, but like nick I would also prefer to end somewhere around September 10th so I can relax a bit before I start working on my thesis
+
-
* [[User:Avdmeers|Antoine]]: 3 short breaks in August, not planned yet though
+
-
*[[User:andim|Andim]]: June 24th- July7th I will be at home in Istanbul, then the weekend after I am not here.
+
-
* [[User:Dries|Dries]]: July 11, August 20th-31th
