Thank you to Mark Edgley who is retiring!

Mark Edgley has been a huge supporter of the CGC and worm community for decades. He single handedly moved the collection from MO to MN in liquid nitrogen tanks carefully nestled in the back of a rented Uhaul, and in the time since has had a hand in generating many thousands of strains for the community.  Today he retires. WormBase joins the CGC and others in thanking him for his tireless service.

Please send him a note of thanks and spread the word to your labs and colleagues to do the same.  His, and Don Moeman’s, retirements are a big loss for the community.
