Hello everyone!
You are receiving this e-mail because you are a current user of the
Ambystoma Genetic Stock Center. We appreciate your patronage and are
here to support your research and education needs. We are in the
process of creating a list of users on the AGSC website. We would
like to list user address, email, and website information: to be
included on the website, please send this information by e-mail (to:
ambystoma At uky.edu). If you know of anyone we should add to the
website or e-mail group, please let us know.
The AGSC has been in operation a little more than 1 year at
University of Kentucky. The axolotl collection that was housed
previously at Indiana University is now well acclimated. Our plan is
to periodically send out e-mails to announce new products (e.g. GFP-
expressing axolotls!), as well as information concerning research and
sales items. We will also send out a survey sometime within the next
month to obtain feedback about AGSC products and services.
We would appreciate receiving recent publications/citation pertaining
to your work with the Mexican axolotl. Hopefully in the near future
we will be able to quickly identify all axolotl-enabled work via
database searches using keywords and integrate this information into
the Sal-Site website (www.ambystoma.org). In this respect, it would
be helpful to include 'axolotl' or 'ambystoma' as keywords in your
manuscripts.
Finally, it is very important for all AGSC and Sal-Site users to
acknowledge NSF and NIH funding mechanisms in the acknowledgements
sections of your publications. Both NSF and NIH program directors
encourage acknowledgement of federal support for Ambystoma research
resources. Thus:
· If your published work is based upon material obtained from
the AGSC or information obtained from the AGSC website, the NSF
requests that you cite the AGSC and the specific grant supporting the
AGSC. The NSF-funded AGSC is supported by the following grant
mechanism: NSF-DBI-0443496.
· If your published work is based upon genome resources or
bioinformation obtained from the Sal-Site website, the National
Center for Research Resources at the National Institutes of Health
requests that you cite the specific grant that supports Ambystoma
research resource development. The NIH-NCRR grant mechanism is: NIH-
NCRR-R24RR16344.
Thanks for your continued support.
--AGSC staff
