Hi Everyone,
We will be sumbitting an NIH white paper to sequence the genome of
Botryllus schlosseri next month and I am writing to ask if anyone would be
willing to write a letter of support for the project. The letter should be
brief and basically outline how the genomic sequence would be used by you
and the community at large. The grant itself will be focused on biomedical
aspects of B. schlosseri, including coloniality, regeneration, and the
underlying stem cell biology and developmental pathways, as well as
histocompatibility. However, any response from any field would be
appreciated. Please email to me at [log in to unmask] if you have the time.
thanks
Tony De Tomaso
