Week 14: Karibu Minnesota!

This week I had a bit of a scenery change as I traveled to Minnesota for the annual APS meeting in Minneapolis (and as a native St. Paulite, I get to stay with my family!)

Before I left Tanzania, I got a few more assays set up and a lot of other work done.

Before the APS meeting started, I gave some of my labmates a tour of the University of Minnesota campus (my alma mater).  Now that the meeting is underway, I’ve been pretty busy running between sessions and catching up with people.

And now a few pictures from the week:
