A talk for the University of Portsmouth

Readers of the blog will be familiar with my repeated visits to the University of Portsmouth and in particular the European Xenopus Resource Centre (EXRC). In January 2024 (see here) I became a Visiting Researcher, School of Biological Sciences, University of Portsmouth, and so during a brief visit to Portsmouth this week, I was asked to give a talk to the School.

The EXRC is a special place for anyone working on Xenopus as they hold breeding stock for anyone in Europe working on Xenopus frogs. Recently, we were able to supply them with some gametes from the progeny of wild caught animals from South Africa. I hope to report more on that project here on the blog in future.

Matt Guille leads the EXRC and received a flashing Xenopus neon sign for the EXRC lab.
