Vi prego di girare alla mailing list del Dip. la richiesta del Royal =
Botanic Garden Edinburgh. Grazie per la cortesia.
Sonia Ravera=20
The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh is involved in a large Transnational =
Access Grant proposal (6th EU Framework - successor of the Large Scale =
Facility Programme), together with other institutes, united in the =
Consortium of European Taxononomic Facilities (CETAF) - see end of this =
e-mail for list of institutes.
=20
If successful, it will mean that colleagues in Europe can apply for =
fairly generous funding for working visits of up to 3 months to use =
RBGE's rich collections and consult specialists in the fields of =
taxonomy, biogeography, molecular systematics biodiversity assessment =
etc. It also provides a great opportunity to develop collaborative =
research programmes.
=20
The chances for the grant proposal, and a condition for full =
participation by our institute therein, will depend on a rich collection =
of letters of support from European colleagues.
=20
This is an important opportunity to fund researchers to work in RBGE. =
Therefore, I would be most grateful if you could find time to send a =
letter of support electronically, or in hard copy on institutional =
stationery, to Dr. Henrik Enghoff, Copenhagen, the Chairman of CETAF at =
your earliest convenenience but NOT later than 20 February.
=20
A draft letter of support with Dr. Enghoff's address is attached for =
your convenience. You are of course welcome to deviate from that format =
and add any embellishments you feel suitable. Could you also send a copy =
of the letter to Carol Gibb=20
(c.gibb@rbge.org.uk).=20
=20
=20
Your help is very much appreciated,
Yours sincerely
