Easter 2004
(click to see pictures)
Lab members and their families gathered at Lucia's house to celebrate
Spring and Easter 2004! With us were Anna's parents from Italy and Elif's
mother from Turkey. Leah, Timothy and Sasha, the youngest lab members,
were quite successful at the Easter present hunt. We ate, listened to
music, and had a good time. The first to depart left with presents of
leftover lasagna. The last to leave were put on dish duty. We were
all shocked by the amount of food left over--probably everyone wanted
to stay light and energetic to get lots of research done!

After almost 3 years as our software guru and Slovak ambassador, we
celebrated Martin's retirement with a lab fiesta. Scott's pasta won the
blue ribbon and everyone politely tried Rob's orange dessert. Martin's
not so old, so there are still a few years left for a lucky future
employer in his new home of Canada.

To foster scientific and social interactions within BRAVI, this year we
combined the welcome back to school year and plans for continued hard
and creative work with the celebration of Martin and Veronika's wedding,
a farewell party to Laura, our best wishes to Jack and Brigitte for their
wedding on September 29, and a celebration of Sergei's birthday with a
river and Harbor sunset cruise. We had great appetizers--Mexican Fiesta
and Mediterranean delights--fun music, cash bar, and good spirits.

Stromboli 2000
(click to see pictures)
June 2000, Lucia, Sanjida, Martin and Winfred, together with some of our
European research collaborators and a few friends of the lab, had a great
week of play and work in Stromboli. Stromboli is a little Italian island,
about 8 miles in diameter, part of the Aeolian islands archipelago. The
unique thing about Stromboli is its active volcano (with spectacular
eruptions every 15-20 minutes), the beautiful blue, clean ocean, the
black volcanic beaches and, of course, us conquering the island.
