	**~~Connor has started mocking~~ up ~~designs, will present at next meeting~~		*Discussed first version of Connor's stack design:
	**Current method of calibration with proton shoot-through is not sufficient for large numbers of scintillator sheets – requires 32 sheet modules where photodiodes do not move between calibration and insertion to ~~full detector~~.		**Main issue is providing enough support for sheets of different sizes.
	**Using radioactive source or UV LED injection can be an alternative method for calibration. Latter is easier, ~~will inquire with Derek about this~~. ~~Using protons for calibration also presents practical issues~~ with ~~obtaining beam~~-~~time~~.		**Current method would require entire detector recalibration if a module is removed.
	*~~Fern will provide headless Pi later this week for testing.~~		**Is there a way of securing 32 sheets in a gapless holder?
	*~~Work on more efficient GUI~~ is ~~underway~~.		**Will reconvene with Connor to discuss feedback.
	**~~Will need to investigate~~ detector ~~control with GUI after handover~~.
	*~~Heard back from Raffy, will continue work on IEEE NSS MIC presentation.~~
	*~~No word from Spyros/UCLH, but Clatterbridge beam test is possible~~.

	*		*Met with Raffy to discuss poster for IEEE NSS MIC
			**Raffy to draft landscape version of poster and slides for video presentation.
			**Will meet again to discuss recording of video.
			*Raffy mentioned that we have a UV LED already, will look for it.
			**Will take care not to dismantle detector after next UCLH beam in order to take calibration measurements with UV LED.
			*Simon has heard back from Andy: UCLH beam test possible within next 1-2 months. Exact date TBC. Measurements to be made:
			**Background & calibration
			**Pencil beams, 70-110 MeV, 3 currents (high, low, very low)
