graph.commit('meta', 'General', $('<div>3 July 2015: After a week of brainstorming and experimenting with our new Arduinos and Raspberry Pis, we had narrowed in on three possible project ideas. Q&A sessions with academics carrying out research here in Cambridge: a discussion with Dennis Bray on Bacterial chemotaxis followed by Richard Bowman’s talk  “Lab on the cheap: 3D printed microscope”. Inspired and excited to move forward with our ideas on Monday!</div>'));
