Last Thursday (23rd September) I attended an impressive lecture by George Church at the Erasmusiaans Gymnasium near the Erasmus Medical Centre in Rotterdam. His talk was among other things about the PGP-10 (personal genome) project. See video here :
The following Friday George M. Church was officially awarded the 4th International Steven Hoogendijk award instated by the Bataafsch genootschap. See a partial google translate of their announcement here :
