Well we breed our dog as she is a pedigree labrador so the pregnancies are planned.

Congrats.. Puppies are ace, my dog is pregnant again and we should have the pitter patter of tiny paws later next month Everything go OK with the birth?

OK well if that is not successful then I suggest emailing universities and asking if they do research in your preferred area.

It would probably be a good idea to do some research around US/Canadian universities and see which of them do your subject.. try looking on google.com

Well it would probably be worthwhile contacting them again once you see a studentship you like.. They are highly unlikely to remember your enquiry from this year..

I'm good thanx, plodding along.. I am just starting my second year so still a long way to go but so far things have been going well.. My area is veterinary microbiology focusing on intestinal health..

How come you are frustrated with yours?

Did you mean J2O?

Welcome back Donut.. sorry to hear you are having a hard time of it I hope other than work stress everything is going well

Have you tried researching on sites like google scholar (scholar.google.com)?

Well there still could be studentships available now but I suppose the next lot will probably be to start in January 2008

http://www.functionalbio.com/calc.htm this site has a converter..

I just use the formula M1V1 = M2V2

where M is molarity and V is volume so say you have a primer solution which is 20ng/ul and you want 30ul of 10ng/ul solution it would work like this

20 x V = 10 x 30
V = 15 ul

So you need to put 15ul of your original solution in 15ul or water to get your desired concentration.. Hope that helps

Oh and this is a good site for converting pico, nano, milli etc

To get the result we need to know the number of trees otherwise the ages could be:-

1-1-36, 1-2-18, 1-3-12, 1-4-9, 2-2-9, 2-3-6, 3-3-4

The ages doen't need to all be different you just need one to be higher i.e. the oldest.

I know what you mean.. Is there no one else in your lab who has done something similar before and could help you out?

Do some research on the web and find universities offering projects in your selected field, there are loads of things available for microbiology.. Try www.findaphd.com for starters.

I am not sure about at St Georges.. But have you tried looking at www.hero.ac.uk for information on it?
