To whom it may be concern.
Dear Colleguaes.
At present molecular genetic approaches play major role in
fundamental research been devoted elucidation of structure
and functions of cells as well as in biomedical research
and in different branches of biotechnology. In view of this
fact the Department of Genetics and Cytology of the
Novosibirsk State University plans to establish the
Division of Molecular Genetics and Gene-Engineering which
should accelerate the training of high-skilled specialist in
this area. The Division will increased its proportion of
resources allotted for basic science training and
participance of student in research work. It will be also
responsible for stimulating, establishing and coordinating
research and educational projects that cross traditional
school boundaries.
The Novosibirsk State University is the leading institution
of higher learning in Siberia. The Department of Genetics
and Cytology was formed at the Novosibirsk State University
in 1969. From its beginning the Department collected
experience in education and training of specialist
in different areas of genetics which are known in Russia
and abroad. There are a number of active work research
scientists involved in educational process in the
Department.
However in view of hard financial situation in russian
education and science at present it extremely difficult to
create necessary material basis for the Department. Because
the University appeal to whom it may be concern with inquiry
of help. Such help may be molecular biology equipment,
reagents, financial aid and so on. We would be glad to hear
any ideas and proposal for cooperation in genetic
education. Thank. Hope hear from you.
Sincerely yours, V.N.Vragov, Rector, Academician, Professor.
