Hi Everyone,

As you probably know, my schedule is a bit messy during the transition period. Starting from Feb 13, I hope to follow the schedule below:

Monday AM – HEP
Monday PM – CPS
Tuesday AM – CPS
Tuesday PM – HEP
Wednesday AM – HEP
Wednesday PM – CPS
Thursday AM- CPS
Thursday PM – Go where needed
Friday AM – CPS
Friday PM – HEP

That said, undoubtedly there will be some element of chaos until the end of this month.

Nevertheless, I would like to start setting up individual meetings with all the CPS staff members ASAP. Please send times that are generically good for you to Samantha Tezak (stezak@anl.gov, cc'd) and we'll start setting up meetings (Samantha has the best knowledge of my schedule, such as it is). Now, I know some of you personally already, but many of you I do not. So, if you suspect I have no idea what you work on, this is what you do: Suggest one grad level textbook, one recent review article, and one or two recent papers that you think are a breakthrough in your field (or very interesting anyway) and I'll do my homework before we meet (send this info along to Samantha as well).

All the Best

Salman
