AG at medical schools?

[Richard Coffey]

There's talk of a AG Node going into the University of Utah Eccles Medical
Library. This is a library that's centrally located near all of the medical
facility buildings on campus. I'm not sure about their timeframe, but they
were very interested. Maybe if I forward on this list of medical centers,
they would up their timeframe.

We're very interested in facilitating collaboration between medical
researchers. Greg Jones (gjones at cs.utah.edu), our assistant director, has
already been drumming up support in the radiology department in the form of
a grant or assisted research. I think there's some real opportunity here.
