Setting up my lab remotely

01 May 2015 by rasi

I am moving to Seattle in July – I am excited to become part of the Fred Hutch community!

I am trying to set up the lab as much as possible from Boston. Items on my agenda include recruiting a research assistant, setting up the lab server, shipping strains and plasmids, ordering consumables, and buying used equipment for the lab.

As a first step, I have shamelessly cloned the website of my soon-to-be colleague, Trevor Bedford. I have become a fan of Version Control and Markdown in the last few months, and Trevor's website is a great showcase for the simplicity and efficiency of these two tools.
