    Hello! I'm interested in how your research is proceeding. As an artist, I participate in an art and theatre project in Stockholm (Sweden), where we work extensively with sustainability, urban farming etc. I'd like to somehow involve the story of "the panda of the plant world"...

    Is there any way to support this after the crowd funding date is passed?

    I will forward this to my African violet club to see if the club might contribute too. Is the African Violet Society of America connected with is in any way?

    I work at UB and have known Charlotte and Vic for years. Their research on past topics, like the polar bear and coffee genomes, have been published in great journals and covered widely by the media. I'm happy to support them as they turn to this new project, which could have important implications for conservation!
