<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Xenopus Community,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> After suffering through on of the coldest Aprils for many a years I am happy to announce that we are now able to ship Xenopus again. If you have been waiting for warmer weather now is the time to place your order for some new
transgenic frogs. Do look at our list of transgenic frogs (<a href="http://www.mbl.edu/xenopus/laevis-stocks">http://www.mbl.edu/xenopus/laevis-stocks</a>). I am sure you will find what you need. There are several options for purchasing frogs:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Buy a live frog. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Buy fresh testes which we will ship overnight on ice in 1X MMR<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Or get some cryopreserved sperm.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am sure we can fulfill your needs.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Look forward to seeing everyone at the Xenopus Conference in Seattle.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">P.S. Stay tuned for announcements about the October 2018 Genome Editing Workshop (longer and cheaper) and the late September Aquatic Models of Human Disease Conference (<a href="http://www.mbl.edu/aqmhd">www.mbl.edu/aqmhd</a>) being held
at the MBL.<o:p></o:p></p>
