My first task for the semester was to update the other members of the Fund raising sub team of the work we did last semester. During our first individual meeting I explained Joe and other members of the work I did last semester and the general approach to fund raising. After our initial discussion I forwarded Joe the list of grants I compiled last semester and included the sample grant proposal document I, Erica and Rachael worked on last semester. I submitted the PSC affiliation document I worked on last semester and talked to Amt Samchomvong about possibility of raising money through PSC for the project.
During the first week I got couple of e-mails from Nicole with information about two conferences in Pittsburgh and Ithaca. I worked with Jake to fine tune his poster from last semester for the Engineering Sustainability Conference and edited the Abstract on Aguaclara website for the National Science Foundation grant of $750 which was being given out for students interested in attending the conference. I used the same abstract to submit the application for the Bio-Engineering expo at Cornell.
