Presenters:
You will be emailed the Wednesday before your presentation date. Please have your journal article selected at this time. The week after you present, please bring a snack to share with the Journal Club participants. If you are unable to present on your assigned date, it is your responsibility to swap dates with another presenter. Email Katie Brown with the changes.

Update:  Katie has set up a majordomo list for the Evo/DevBio Journal Club.  The list is evo_devbiojc@lists.berkeley.edu.  To subscribe to the list follow these steps (from the IST page)

1) send an email to:
       majordomo@lists.berkeley.edu
that contains:
       subscribe evo_devbiojc
in the body of the message.  (Majordomo only looks at the body of a message and ignores any subject line.)

2) You will then receive an e-mail back from Majordomo asking you to confirm your request to belong to the list.

3) In order to unsubscribe from a Majordomo mailing list you need to send your request to "majordomo@lists.berkeley.edu" So, just send a message addressed to:
majordomo@lists.berkeley.edu

that contains a command like this in the body of the mail message:

unsubscribe evo_devbiojc
