<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Xenopus Community,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> As part of the new R24 grant we received we can make custom mutant frogs for individuals. If you have interest in making a mutant frog please email me and we can discuss options. Most mutants are easier to make in X. tropicalis
and faster as well. Even if you do not work with them you can then come to the MBL and work with us on the mutants and we can share the expertise with you. As mentioned in my previous email housing is free as part of this project.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> If you have any questions or are interested in coming to the MBL to use the mutant and transgenic animals let me know. We are accepting visitors<o:p></o:p></p>
