Things in the library 18th Oct


Things we did:
Library Away Day
Sorry if you came to see us on Tuesday 15th ...we weren't here... we were having our Away Day to consider 'where next' for the library service. A useful ice breaker exercise we did was to summarise what our purpose is in the form of a tweet i.e limited to 140 characters. That certainly got the brain cells working. We didn't go very far just across the road to the Arts Tower but it was good to get away out of our usual environment.

The presenter this week was Pawan Kumar Sharma and he  presented the paper "Urine proteomics for discovery of improved diagnostic markers of Kawasaki disease".     Read the article here  and find out more about Journal Club here
