Thanks Val I'm not sure how many people will contribute content-wise so I may ask for help from people I may not.
My main concern currently is making sure I get the content right for the pitch tomorrow and to make sure it's broad enough to make sense to non scientists as part of what I'm trying to achieve is drag oodt from purely science into more mainstream applications. So if anyone can think of anything else that is missing now is the time to speak up! ;) Tom On 26 May 2015 17:06, "Mallder, Valerie" <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Tom, > > I may be able to contribute some content to section 1.4.1 depending on how > many examples you want to provide.
