[labnetwork] how to retain knowledge

[Katalin Voros]

Dear Colleagues,

This is indeed a subject we are all struggling with and it will be
a great subject to discuss at our next UGIM symposium.

With input from many of you who were at this year's meeting at Purdue,
we decided that our next meeting, in 2012, will be held here at UC
Berkeley. We selected the date such that you will also have a chance
to attend Semicon West in San Francisco, while you are here.

UGIM 2012: 9-10 July
Semicon West: 10-11-12 July 2012

Because of the shorter time frame and also because of the requests for 
longer sessions on lab management, we will not invite technical papers 
in 2012. We are planning to call for papers on all facets of lab management,
benchmarking, and on special issues medium and small labs face. 

In the mean time let us continue to communicate through this list,
labnetwork at mtl.mit.edu

It was great to see many of you at the Purdue meeting.

Sincerely
              Katalin Voros
              UC Berkeley
