I visited Milan for official work to learn some techniques in a collaborator's laboratory. The climate was very sunny, hot and humid; but very appealing. Landing on sunday at Milan Malpensa airport by EasyJet from Brussels was an unique experience. Being a low cost airline, I had to pay for check-in baggage that made me to think twice before using easyjet in future. I shall post in detail in my next post.
Sunday, 28th june, we went to see "Jodha-Akbar" in Indian Film Festival. Chaitanya and Sai Santosh were very good hosts. We had nice time chatting about our student experiences.
From monday until wednesday, I had to be in my collaborator's lab. Dr. Gianluca Matteoli, the senior postdoc in the lab of Prof. Maria Rescigno, showed me the subtle procedures involved in isolation of Lamina Propria Mononuclear Cells (LPMCs). I did a trial myself before leaving Milan. Interacting with the members there especially Elisa and Deepak (PhD students) was very memorable.
Since, I had been to Milan in May 2006, I did not go around much. I shall post my pictures in series of posts on my travel. I returned on evening flight from Milan to Brussels by EasyJet. Probably, this will be my last trip with EasyJet.
