Despite the 95o weather yesterday, we had a dedicated group of about 15 people—biotech folks, grad students, postdocs (Alex and Hari among others), two Nature editors and a couple of our bloggers too, Jo and Anna) come to our first drinks night last night in Cambridge. It went really well, I thought (though the air conditioning could have been cranked up) and it looked like some good connections were made. Thanks everyone for coming out.
If you have any feedback on how the event went, what can be done better, please post here.
Our next pub night will the last week in July, at a place near Longwood. So stay tuned!
Thanks for organizing that. So the next one will be in the Longwood area, right? ;)
Yup.
Alex posted something about his conversations at the pub night and it touched off quite a debate about the future of scientific publishing.
