Brick Faculty Meeting; June 15, 11:30am

Dear Colleagues, We will have our mid-year Birck Faculty meeting on Thursday June 15 at 11:30am in BRK 1001. Please let Jaime know if you can make it so that we order enough lunches. We will also have WebEx (please let Jaime know if you plan to participate remotely). See below the agenda of the meeting. In addition to regular updates, we will discuss about the equipment replacement/purchase priorities. For the latter, we look forward to hear your input. The priority will be given to a shared equipment that is used by a wide range of users and/or unique facilities that can set Purdue apart for major center proposals. We encourage acquisitions for which partial funding will be provided by faculty, departments and/or colleges. For faculty or staff who may be interested to make a pitch for a tool, please send me by Monday June 12 at 5pm, 2-3 viewgraphs about the equipment’s main capabilities and cost, key groups that can benefit from the tool in current or future projects and their anticipated usage. The pitch should be 2-3 minutes (except for major tools where we will spend more time as needed). Please let Dimitri or me know if you have any suggestions about what else we should discuss at the meeting. Best regards, Ali ******************* BNC Faculty meeting 11:30am-1:30pm Thursday June 15, 2015 Birck 1001 Agenda · New Faculty/Staff · New laboratories and equipment installations · Financial update; Equipment usage · Staff cross-training · Common process characterization · Birck Faculty Leadership Council · Equipment replacement/ new equipment priorities · Q&A *******************

BRK process characterization and improvement program: update and kick-off meeting ; 1-2pm BRK 1001

Dear colleagues, Right after the June 15th faculty meeting (11.30am, BRK 1001), we will have our kick-off meeting for the process characterization and improvement program. The first part of the program started in March 2017 by requesting information (please see relevant email sent on March 3rd). We received processing information throughout the month of March. In April and May we processed the submitted information from all groups that contributed processes, and developed a systematic approach to help us start in an organized manner. In this kickoff meeting we would like to: 1. Discuss the developed processing plan and collect feedback. 2. Discuss the logistics for sharing and using data. 3. Discuss the timeline for the next few months. 4. Assign student-trainers from the groups that submitted the requested information and/or from additional groups that did not originally submit processes but would like to be involved from this point on. We have designed the processes to be quite generic and we expect to benefit a wide range of process and characterization steps. All are welcome to attend and contribute. Please feel free to ask an experienced person from your group to join the meeting if you prefer. Thanks Dimitri
