Meeting Summary (Help)
Meeting Date: Jan. 26, 2009
Summary: Determine the stability of the pinted biomaterials including collagen, fibronectin and laminin. Print 243 different samples into microwells.
Action Plan: Learn miroarray technoloty and print the materials into microwells
Meeting Date: Jan. 6, 2009
Summary: Study microarray from lifeng, construct my own project.
Action Plan: Do experiment following lifeng, learn as more as i can
Progress on issues from last meeting:
