| The following is a list of activities and some possible activities of HDNA, and these are meant for discussion and expressions of interest on your part. Please click to the right of each topic to indicate if you are interested in working in these areas. If you are interested in an activity, it can be adapted to your ideas and desires.
This is by no means an exhaustive list, so feel free to email a new idea, especially if doing it is why you are interested in HDNA!
In order to start off successfully, we might want to concentrate on a few projects first, so that there are more resources to do the other activities later. (Rome was not built in a day....so HDNA will take some time to build, too, but we can do it.)
