A lot has been going on the past week, so it’s probably a good time to update here with some of the more important items:
1) The MRI radio frequency shield will receive its first test today. If that’s successful, we’ll then go on to install the magnetic shield.
2) We’re looking at delivery of the Magnet over the weekend of May 8. We’ll arrange video recording of the delivery and will put it up on the Institute’s web site for download.
3) The Provost made his annual visit with the Krasnow faculty yesterday. It was a very productive Q&A session for which we’re all very grateful.
4) The Krasnow Advisory Board met last week and formed two new subcommittees: one will be in the area of fundraising and it will be chaired by Ms. Patricia Kluge. The other will be in the area of public relations and that committee will be chaired by Dr. Adrianne Noe. My sense is that both of these new subcommittees will be crucial as we move forward with our growth plans.
