<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Xenopus community,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> I will be submitting the NXR renewal in May. I am writing to ask a favor. If you have used any NXR resources (frogs, workshops, etc.) and this has been part of a publication in the last 5 years can you please email me the publication??
Even if you did not list the NXR in your acknowledgements, and realize that NXR resources did contribute please send those publications along. I would appreciate any help you can offer.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> I will also be reaching out to people asking for letters of support. These are critical to the review process. So if I reach out to you please help me out. If you want to volunteer a letter of support please pass it along I
welcome it<o:p></o:p></p>
