Dear Geoffrey,
Could you please help me in announcement of the Embryo Course at the White =
Sea Station in summer 2016? It would be nice to spread the letter below in =
"Annelida" community! Thank you!
Sincerely yours, Nadezhda
Dear colleagues,
Could you please distribute the following information to potential applican=

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year! ;)

The White Sea Biological station of Moscow State University offers 3-week f=
ield course in embryology of marine invertebrates
13 June =96 03 July 2016
COURSE DESCRIPTION
The Course will be lab-oriented with daily lectures on various aspects of i=
nvertebrate development. Students will learn the methods of culturing of ma=
rine invertebrates and will be taught how to document the development using=
traditional illustration techniques and digital photography and video. The=
students will also carry out simple individual projects on development of =
a particular species. The main goals of the individual projects are to demo=
nstrate various methods and approaches in experimental embryology such as i=
mmunocytochemistry and confocal microscopy and pharmacological modulation. =
We plan to study the development of approximate 35 species from 10 inverteb=
rate phyla (Porifera; Cnidaria; Annelida; Mollusca; Lophophorata; Nemertea;=
Arthropoda; Nematoda; Echinodermata; Tunicata). All species are easy acces=
sible in close vicinity of the station and can be collected either in the i=
ntertidal one or by the scuba divers.

LOCATION
The White Sea Biological Station is located on the wild and scenic coast of=
Kandalaksha Bay of the White Sea (66=B0 34' N, 33=B0 08' E) exactly on the=
Polar Circle. It is a remote and isolated academic settlement accessible o=
nly by boat from the nearest village Poyakonda. Station facilities comprise=
a number of recently upgraded laboratories with recirculating seawater sys=
tem and cLSM. The station has good diving facilities and a fleet of motorbo=
ats and small vessels designed for benthic and pelagic sampling.
Applications are invited preferably from graduate students however well qua=
lified undergraduate student as well as post-docs and researches interested=
in embryology of marine invertebrates that recently started their career, =
may also apply.
