Seminar in Marburg

Today I gave a seminar at the Max Planck Institute in Marburg, the second for the week. This one was a little more polished than the one in Bochum plus there was no issues with quality of the slide projection which occurred in Bochum and ruined the talk somewhat. Questions ran for about 20 min afterwards which was good so lots of interest and feedback from the students and post docs whose work I have been critiquing the last 4 weeks.

Yesterday I heard the Bioprotection Centre has been refunded for another 5 year term which is great news. No details yet whether we got the level of funding we asked for or not. I felt quite confident about this bid as the lessons were learnt from the failed bid a year ago with much fewer people involved and a very strong emphasis on quality.
