In addition to John, I collaborated with John White (who also taught me English slang, although I think he made up some of the terms), Nichol Thomson, Bob Horvitz, and Peter Evans (a friend from graduate school who had move to the Zoology Department in Cambridge).

Iqbal and Horvitz found that "participants spent, on average, nearly 10 minutes on switches caused by alerts, and spent on average another 10 to 15 minutes depending on the type of interruption before returning to focused activity on the disrupted task."

When I arrived at the LMB, I was given three feet of bench space next to a cubbyhole that contained our Nomarski microscope (later, when Bob Horvitz left for his faculty job at MIT, I was able to move to the slightly larger desk he used next to the window).
