Hello, This is great news. But the problem is this. Does the fund cover travelling expenses, in terms of an air ticket to USA and back to India? Getting a go ahead from my University in India would not be a problem since the work here on stem cell research is serious. But I want to know about the travelling part. My Univ. can not cover that. So please let me know about this as fast as you can. Take care Thank You, Lavanya -----Original Message----- From: Charlotte Mancuso <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] <[log in to unmask]> Date: 18 April 2002 14:01 Subject: It's not too late!
