[Mitarbeiter.zoologie] Happy New Year

[Robert Paxton]

Dear All,

For those that missed the lab meeting yesterday: Happy New Year!

On the 31 December there was a flood in our building, oil which I reported yesterday. Water escaped from an 8th floor lab (not our lab), but it reached the 6th floor. It seems that it impacted mainly the centre of the corridor and associated rooms (TA room, PCR room, Simon’s Belinda’s and the central PhD room. Water is now mostly dried up. But things on desks in the PhD room became a little wet. Please check these out when you have time. Most (all) electrical equipment was saved by Lukas, Anna and Fernando. We are looking into how to resolve the problems that arose. More will be reported upon at the next lab meeting (next Monday). 

Come what may, I welcome you all back to the lab for a productive and academically stimulating rest of winter semester.

Best wishes,

Robert
