Anna's message, doubts, clear points

Information Transfer

Transfer information to new board members:

Who is on the following email distribution?

  • hello@hackuarium.ch ->
  • board@hackuarium.ch -> all board members
  • name@hackuarium.ch -> can we/do we want more email addresses? At the moment, only Yann H and Luc have one.

Who can update the welcome protocols?
Who has the following IT credentials?

  • Social media (editor role - contributor roles - image gurus - Yann Rachel, Vanessa and Xs?)
  • Bank account -> Luc went to the bank with Ana -> sorted

Who is in charge of the following tools

  • Hackuarium Google calendar ->
  • Cards & building accesses -> who has/needs what + clear request to Christophe @UC / JP @Cacib

Foreign relations

  • UC community meetings -> who takes care of this?

Invoices and membership payment:

  • Implementing smallinvoice to send invoice automatically every month. Does everybody agree?
  • What about the last year invoices that have not been payed, (members who have not payed their memberships) Should I remember them/send them an invoice or should we start from 0 this year?.
  • Buying new items. Is there a procedure?
  • Reimbursement to members who have pay for items. Should we make it easier?
  • Adding the information about the invoice/reimbursement/paying to a folder in the drive, available to the committee members. Yes/No?

Point 2: Biosafety & Lab management

(Vanessa and Rachel, 3 min)

Things to get done (by Yann P. on the slack)

  • Attach the eye washers with the instructions against the wall next to the sink
  • Find the bandaid box / medic box we had and put it in evidence somewhere in the lab (preferable close to the eyewashers)
  • Make sure we have a fire extinguisher. Put it on the left of the sink
  • Subscribe for a a "responsabilité civile" insurance (Model of the makerspace option 1)
  • Inventory control system


  • Should we have a Biosafety guide/instruction/manager? (Chemicals, biohazard containers for autoclave or bleach...)

Luc: Yes! But everyone should get basic intro (like in the makerspace)! Let's schedule one 15 minutes introduction each Wednesday, and match with the members list.
Yann : Absolutely, it's important members get to know how a microbiology lab works. Currently, the lab is not in a state for making microbiology IMO & Rachel's (safety wise and in terms of good laboratory practice).
Rachel: Need to make sure newly renovated lab gets up to real P1 standards, but for now need to accommodate for multi-use (even a table where food is allowed??) and restrict experimental work.
RA thinks Luc's idea for an intro session is excellent, but maybe it would be better as each new member gets their card and full access, rather than trying for every Weds night... especially as each new member might need to find different equipment etc.
RA would further like to know what is going on about that Crispr trial/workshop (mut to streptomycinR!?)...

Point 3: Events

(Vanessa, Rachel and Luc H. 5 minutes)

  • Wiki Sprint -> Who is in charge of the planning?
  • European Citizen Science Forum in Paris (March 25th). They can cover Vanessa's trip. Anyone else?
  • DIY Madrid, [1] (Vanessa)
  • DIY Bcn Should we reconnect? (Vanessa, email resent)
  • SWILABS - Swiss Public Biolabs Network meeting in Ticino (Rachel)
  • Meeting with CHIC, Wed 29.03.2017 to plan kick-off event on 18 May (Luc)
  • Living Instruments tour dates (see below)
  • Any other event/meeting planned? At Hackuarium or in collaboration with the community?
