After considerable effort, the group of candidates was reduced from 93 to 5 who will be invited for interviews and a research seminar. The final challenges of finding suitable space for Dr. Gu are still being negotiated. Dr. Marc Heft will be providing an update on this initiative during our January IFAB meeting. We have yet to hear back from Commander Yaffe on our proposal to schedule this visit during the third week in November. Dr. Luttge once again expressed hope that IFAB members will want to participate in this interesting and important meeting.
