+=== Summary of actions required ===
+
+In-Beam Diagnostics
+- **RW, CD**: Study correlation between laser diagnostics and mean dose
+- **CD, TP**: Refine evaluations of LET in the cells with the RCF in front
+- **CD**: Predict the cell dish dose from the RCF in front of it
+- **PH**: Investigate how to get the light out of the vacuum chamber
+- Investigate how a phosphor sheet could be incorporated into the design
+- Acquire a glass sheet
+
+Bio Next Steps
+- **EM**: Write up a biology plan
+ - Decide whether to use Marie's lab and whether to stick with HeLa
+- **EM, MB, JP, RA**: Meet to finalise details
+- **Unassigned**: Obtain an inverted microscope
+- **Unassigned**: Run controls to examine how long the cells can survive vertically
+
+Improve the spatial variation
+- Decide the energy we should be optimising for
+ - **RW**: Examine energy spectra variation
+ - Find LET for different energies in the cell dish
+
+Other Beamlines
+- **JMcG**: Simulate BELLA
+- **JMcG**: Talk to ELI people and simulate ELI
+- Build a bid towards ELI
