In signing off you have agreed that this lab is of acceptable quality to be submitted for a grade. Your initials should be placed on the first page of the lab next to your name. The PI must make the agreed upon changes before the reviewers sign-off and the lab is submitted. Past experience shows that it is essential for each member of the group to come prepared to lab. Do not assume that the PI will have a complete comprehension of the task at hand.
Science works best when the group fully participates in the process.
Top of page. As time permits we will have each group briefly summarize their experimental design, results, and interpretation of their experiment in lab the week that a PI lab is handed in. Your classmates and instructors will have opportunity to ask questions. These discussions are very useful to see the range of results and outcomes, and to hear alternative interpretations of similar results. Top of page.
