As a tradition, every summer HRVIP members write their names on the lab's blackboard along with their summer plans. This year, the lab held a virtual seminar for everyone to touch base before the summer. Casey Miller went into the lab to write everyone's names and plans on the blackboard and this webpage serves as this year's virtual blackboard.
