Supervisor meeting notes - 2021-10-25
Kate, Mark and I present
Derek on fieldwork
Kate and Mark should be present for meeting next week
I am taking leave on thursday and friday this week for my birthday
Meeting with Stephen
Stone sampling
CBM results
Recapped results of meeting of previous week to Mark
Stephen leaving at the end of December
Amanda starts in early Januray
No interim period between Managers, so nothing to worry about there
Amanda unlikely to revoke any permissions that Stephen gave, so no need to worry there
Zosia said it would be extremely surprising if Stephen is still not actively involved in RB for a period after leaving
He may end up being more involved with the Roman Baths Foundation, which would be very useful if I applied to them for funding for any projects
Stephen may be able to find a pot of money for ex-situ sampling, so this may still be able to go ahead in addition to the in-situ work
If pot of money was found, then this could go ahead (or begin being organised) immediately
No response from HE yet, but Stephen will continue to nudge them and remind them that he is leaving soon
Hopefuly they will be keen to wrap this up before he goes
Based on process of liasion between facilities at Bath, Cliveden, Zosia and I, organising sampling may take more than 4 or even 6 weeks of communication once permission given/deadline reached
Deadline for HE response therefore set at the end of November to ensure timely completion and analysis
Even if HE reply late, in-situ sampling might be able to go ahead and add results into thesis post-viva with examiners' permissions
Too many go into in a short zoom meeting
Have said that I will annotate meeting presentation with notes and send round so that Mark and Derek can understand the jist of what I presented in the meeting
May also be able to meet with Mark over coffee next week and take him through the results then
Presentation on memory stick corrupted, so contact Zosia and hopefully get her to email over a fresh copy from BaNES drives
Until next meeting, continuing with CBM pXRF and have leave for birthday
Kate mentioned she still has lots of cooking apples
See if there are any vegan crumble recipes that could be made for Marina using these
