Attending: Aidan, Andy, Amanda, Christian Weber, Chris Potter, Dan, Jim, Lucas 

Minutes: 

• presentation by Lucas: update on his H -> t+t- CP violation analysis; talking about mixing angle precision estimation approaches; next steps: using more background, improve sensitivity-based weighting method. Lucas will work on this until June. 
• discussing future: Snowmass process was 'slowed down' - will meet one year later than initially planned, in the summer of 2022
• Glasgow will have a new postdoc - for three months, starting in February - to possibly work on SiD full simulation and reconstruction; thumbs up from Chris Potter 
• Andy's student Austin Prior to work on H -> invisible

Next meeting: January 27th
