Hi all

Currently we have Maia here at Caiman House until July 30. She will be attending med school at Mcgill in Sept. and has taken an interest in building on the health information project that Belinda, Sienna and Khem have all contributed to. Marcus, a UVic microbiology graduate, will be with us in Sept and Oct to volunteer and could use some suggestions/guidance as to what to prepare/bring/expect/plan. Khem's donated microscope should arrive around the same time as Marcus.

And just this morning we received an e-mail from Nicole Johnson, who has just applied to med schools in hopes of becoming a physician's assistant and who is thinking of volunteering in Yupukari!

We here in Yupukari are wondering whether a blog where you all (Maia, Marcus, Sienna, Khem, Nicole) could discuss, wax, spew etc is a good idea. Maia is here on the ground now so she can report locally and relay Jones' perspective(the microscopist, Nicole Marcus) or even get him using the blog or at least starting.

One place to get everyone's thoughts and questions and ideas down.
