Dear Colleague,
I have been informed to a university plan to sell off 75% of the buildings
and facilities of the Station Marine d'Endoume (Marseille, France), where I
moved in 2004 to manage the unit of research DIMAR. This will reduce the
Station to a dysfunctional token. This Marine Station has provided facilities
for marine research in the Mediterranean for over 100 years, and the need for
such research centres is just as great today as it has ever been. I would urge
you to take the time to read the information on the NoE MARBEF website and if
you feel strongly, to sign the petition protesting this decision. There are
both English and French versions.
