Connor McCoy has been with me almost since the beginning, and his abilities and knowledge have been critical for much of the applied and theoretical work the group has done since its inception. He will be joining Google Seattle to work on Google Compute Engine.

Chris Small has been with us for about two and a half years, and has driven forward our joint work with Maxine Linial and Lisa Jones-Engel on Simian Foamy Virus (and soon Astroviruses!) and the associated methods development. He will be transferring in a month to work full time on his startup pol.is which was recently highlighted on GeekWire.
