Research

 * Trouble-shooting on parameter refitting version of LR bootstraps.

NESCent

 * Considering a visit to NESCent, meet researchers and learn about programs, post-docs, etc.

People

 * Todd Vision, UNC -- Ass. Director Informatics. Contact Re: Dryad project.  Consider a white paper on interdisciplinary evolutionary synthesis.
 * Brian Weigmann NCSU Diptera Systematics. Ass. Director Outreach NESCent
 * Allen Rodrigo Director NESCent. (Computational evolutionary biology).  Discuss possible catalysis meeting, working group, visiting scholar.
 * Susan Alberts Director of Science and Synthesis. (Marcrofauna behavior).  Discuss possible catalysis meeting, working group, visiting scholar.
 * Liam Revell

Linking Big

Activities

 * Would be fantastic to explore the potential for a Catalysis Meeting
 * "Typically, proposals that have been selected for support by NESCent are those that explicitly capitalize on NESCent's in-house community, its linkages locally, nationally, and internationally, and the IT and logistic resources that are available"
 * "We greatly encourage synergy between sabbatical scholars, short-term visitors, working groups, catalysis groups, and postdoctoral fellows."


 * Science of Science Project, Professor Cummings on Science Collaboration. Fascinating set of papers.  Also contact Chris Shields.  These ideas are also attracting strong NSF support


 * Working Group


 * Fantastic Open Science Policy on data and code.

Misc

 * Laptop into a door sign? The things you find on the NESCent website blogs.
