    - AIMs debrief
        - Poster session
            - Interest in file writing method (why Zarr?), and live streaming+control in napari GUI
               - "What is Zarr? What is the benefit?"
               - Andy York saving to tiff
                - Data storage and downstream processing considerations have continued interest
                - Alfred(?) **not** running microscope system at full frame rate
            
            - Andy York live cell imaging on snouty system; imaging triggered only upon state changes
        - ASI unveiled new microscope system (single obj lightsheet system); not much would change in Acquire to get on to new system
        - General interest in Acquire (at conference & outside; Leica)
    - Zarr testing
        - [Micah's slides](https://)
            - Camera isn't failing, so what is the drop frame behavior like? 
            - Seems to be triggers being dropped. Nathan to set up triggering
        - "Weird stuff" asstertion failed ( left != right) during shutdown
            - Nathan : exception being thrown, we'll need to find out where and why

    - Chunking plan
        - Proposal : user specifies in bytes and then lets software determine optimized chunk size and shape
            - [Adam] : current implementation in workflow doesn't allow them to specify this; more control over parameter is great

- Action Items
    - [ ] CZI team book travel
    - [ ] Nathan : debugging on dcam issue
