Will start on ecosystem research logistics.
- Sumana would appreciate a walk through of the inteview so far. Bernard do that in the meeting next week.

next week, in a meeting: Bernard to share with us those emerging research themes, combination of presentation + Q&A to be 20-30 min
- Sumana: Has been blocked internally by competing deadlines, but that's been sorted last week. Today is working on pip publicity work. Working on email with Ernest and Betsy to send to sponsors. Taking another look at the video script (for the team to record). Also reminded that quite collab meetings with team members are helpful. In the coming weeks she'll ask Ernest, Pradyun, Nicole and Bernard for quiet collab video meeitngs. That is helpful epecially when also inundated with other contact. No need to say about availability. She'll reach out to people.
