>> Te adjunto abajo el mail que me envio Rosi (Rosmarie RIPPKA

>> colección de cepas de cianobacterias en el Instituo Pasteur de Paris.
>> Nos comunica que la Unité des Cyanobactéries en el Pasteur Institute
>> cerrará en Enero de 2010, justo después que ella, y Nicole Tandeau de 
>> Marsac (su
>> actual directora) se van a jubilar.
>>
>> Al parecer hay pocas chances de convencer al directores del Pasteur de 
>> que
>> mantengan la Unidad funcionando. Rosi sugiere que los que querramos 
>> mantener la
>> colección de cepas escribamos una carta a los Directores del Instituto 
>> Pasteur
>> (Madame Alice Dautryver y Monsieur Anthony Pugsley ) y la mandemos como 
>> pdf
>> adjunto a ella <rrippka at pasteur.fr> para que luego ella las imprima y las 
>> haga
>> llegar a los Directores cuando haya juntado un buen número de cartas.

>> Los que conocemos la labor de Rosi, y la magnifica colección de cepas

>> Dear colleagues and friends,
>>
>> Unfortunately, I have some bad news: In 2006 the PCC obtained the ISO
>> 9001 certificate and integrated into the Centre of Biological Resources
>> at the Pasteur Institute (CRBIP). Thanks to the generous support from
>> the Pasteur Institute we presently have greatly improved working
>> conditions (three new culture rooms were installed -at high costs- when
>> we moved to a new building on campus three years ago). Furthermore,
>> Muriel Gugger was hired last year as my future successor. All of this
>> gave us a certain optimism for the future. However, there is a very high
>> probability that the Unité des Cyanobactéries at the Pasteur Institute
>> will close in January 2010 (six months after Nicole Tandeau de Marsac
>> and myself retire). Consequently, we shall most likely need to look for
>> a new home for the PCC strain collection (a total of about 800 axenic
>> isolates) in order to ensure that scientists and commercial enterprises
>> world-wide will continue to have access to this valuable biological
>> material. It seems highly unlikely that we shall be able to convince the
>> Directors of the Pasteur Institute to change their minds about the
>> renewal of the Unit with Jean-François Humbert and Philippe Quillardet
>> as senior scientists or to keep at least the PCC and associated staff
>> (Muriel Gugger, Thérèse Coursin and Thierry Laurent), in whose
>> competence I fully trust. However, we may have a slightly better chance
>> of saving the PCC and thus permitting continued national and
>> international research, if you were willing to send us a letter of
>> support. This could be done as jpg attachments by E-mail (which we would
>> print and transmit to the Directors - once a sufficient number has been
>> collected). Alternatively, you may write directly to two of the present
>> directors ( preferably with a copy to us), whose contacts are given 
>> below.
>> With my best wishes, and thanks in advance
