Applying an addition of 0.086mm on average fixes this issue, though we still have some systematic underestimation of the range.		**Strong range-energy dependence without any WET correction.

*Attended PTCOG conference in Miami and was then on holiday until 13th July.
**No meeting last 2 weeks due to Simon being in Spain.
*Met with Andy Poynter at UCLH to discuss career options during/post post-doc:
**Formal 50/50 position during postdoc unlikely due to excessive commitments, but shorter term placements at UCLH are possible.
**Longer term positions are also possible, but would need to find money to justify pausing postdoc funding.
**Route 2 by the Association of Clinical Scientists is a useful way to gain clinical certification while working as an e.g. clinical technologist. This is something that can be done after postdoc.

*Manchester are interested in making some (FLASH) measurements with the QuARC and do PeakFinder WET measurements of the detector. Will liaise with Sam Manger after 8th August to discuss.
*Spoke with Linda Mortimer at PTCOG and Clatterbridge are interested in a compact version of the QuARC for pristine Bragg peak and SOBP measurements.
**Will work towards developing 14-sheet (2.86mm) detector with USB104 and Raspberry Pi.
*USB104 works with Rev. B boards, however encountered a problem with DPTI interface with TX_EN sometimes going high (disabling writing) after 19 bytes are written to the chip, causing data to be disordered and appear very noisy.
**Will ask Matt Warren to look into this, as this will likely remain an issue with Zmod version of daughter board for Rev. D.
**Will investigate Quad SPI programming on board to enable automatic configuration on power-up.
