status for May 11

things I did today

• bartomod ran lhs sampling across narrow range of parameter space but bat prevalence is still too high; switched over to using least squares to fit our model across a flat time series (~50%), which gives some promising parameter estimates and realistic prevalence
• provphylo made some solid headway on the introduction and added a table of hypotheses for micro/macroparasitism
• bartonella ordered master mix for next week's round of Loreto samples
• peru sent Ornela my estimate for missing samples, finally arranged for letters requesting the status of our convenio and for sample exportation to be sent on Friday
• postdoc sent some more emails
• eeid2016 paid for housing and poster has been accepted, so time to revisit old analyses

things I should do tomorrow

• bka meet with BioTek rep to help setup Gen5 protocols, order new bacterial pellets
• peru finalize and print INS and SERFOR documents on UGA letterhead
• provphylo fleshing out hypotheses in the introduction, dig into methods again `
