All-Staff Reports
All-Staff Reports are informal briefs by ACOM staff and visitors on their recent work. In the past few years, reports have primarily focused on scientific research activities (hence the former name: "Research Reports"). However, in 2018 we began to include activities by all staff, not all of which may quite fit under the descriptor "research" but which nonetheless significantly contribute to the attainment of Laboratory research objectives. Technical staff may report on major projects or specific tasks, while administrative staff may report on activities which make much of the Lab's work even possible. Indeed not all work by scientific staff is exactly research, so they might report on their current research or other activities in which they are engaged.
Reports are held every other Wednesday, online or in FL2-2512 at 11:00 am.
If you cannot make your scheduled slot, please do your best to switch with someone else. In the event you are unable to do so, please contact Carl Drews (and the sooner the better).
