+I am **now accepting applications for undergraduate staff** for the 2024-2025 academic year. I will likely close the application period around 5/24 and begin interviews. I am hoping to find 3-4 new hires that can begin as soon as June 17. If you are interested, {{ :announcements:staff_job_description.pdf | please see this job description }}, which also contains application instructions.
-**We are ready to offer training on our [[wazer_waterjet | waterjet cutter]].** We will be limiting class sizes to two users per week, so please only request training if you expect to use the tool within a month or less.

+**The Innovation Workshop and Microfluidics Lab have been merged into one FBS facility.** Please ensure that you are working inside the new facility, appropriately named "Innovation Workshop & Microfluidics Lab". Let us know if you have any questions or notice anything missing.

-**We have redesigned our silanization chamber.** The new chamber features polymer valves and fittings which should not corrode like the stainless steel fittings used in the previous chamber. The silane agent is also stored in a sealed glass container now, so we can easily see when it is running low. Please take a moment to [[vapor_silanation_rig_sop_new | review the new SOP]] before using the tool. Report any issue to the lab manager, and note them in the log book.

-The Trotec **laser cutter has been restored,** and may now be used again. After a thorough cleaning, we replaced the honeycomb bed and airjet lines. We also performed a few routine test cuts to make sure that the lens and positional accuracy were not affected.
