[Isotope-prod] Fwd: LERF and isotope production proposal

Everyone

We have a scheduled telephone conference with Marc Garland and Ethan Balkin on Monday, May 21 starting at 3 pm.  

As you are all aware, there is an FOA due on June 15 and we need to decide whether we re-submit our previous proposal (we had no feedback on that) or whether we revamp it somewhat.  I do not believe we have time to develop another isotope, and I am loathe to give up completely after the effort we have already invested.  

In addition, Marc and Ethan have agreed to visit JLab and VCU on Tuesday June 12.  They will arrive at JLab around 10:00 am, spend ~3 hours here and then leave for VCU to be there in the early afternoon.  

I will set up a pre-meeting so we can prepare these important events.

Thanks

Andrew

We would like to discuss with Marc and Ethan about our options and leave ourselves enough time to submit (or resubmit).  Perhaps we could arrange a telephone conference fairly soon and not wait for the visit?

Marc and Ethan are considering the first two weeks of June. Would this be feasible? If that doesn’t work, please let me know what does work for JLAB and VCU – I will work around that to find something that works for Marc and Ethan.
