• consulted pro facilitator friend on how to facilitate the collaboration meeting between my wet lab PI and a physics PI. steps: (1) 1-5 min each intro about what you have been doing for this topic and what you think this meeting is about (2) shared goals for the meeting - eg get enough info to know are we collaborating? (3) free form discussion but try to balance if one side goes overboard (4) end the meeting with answer to shared goal and next step: time line, next meeting?, what else.
  • information arbitrage: talking to one person in a project about the project then boating questions that either got answered or arose during that talk to start talking to someone else on that project. → helped me email kosmrlj finally hahahah. I feel ok.
