Change of Meeting Format, for Reference

This is the change of meeting format that we agreed to per email discussion:

We keep the 2 hr meetings every 2 weeks, with scheduling of the next meeting decided at the start of each meeting, by looking at the group calendar.
We start the meetings with the group research presentations, then do journal club, paper review etc if there is time.
Once or twice a month, we make one of the group lunches on Thu 1 pm (or another day and/or time if needed) mandatory for discussion of business items. Either at the UMC, or perhaps better we do a "brown bag" lunch meeting at S274 with the projector.
