Hi Tonmo!
I'm a postdoctoral researcher at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology working on cephalopod genomics and the establishment of a laboratory research model for cephalopods. I'm visiting the Max Planck Institute in Dresden, Germany right now for a light sheet microscopy course. I would like to image live cephalopod embryos, as part of the course. I had originally planned to get embryos from another researcher but it turns out his eggs all hatched. I was wondering if anyone might know of a quick source (research or commercial) for eggs of any species. Smaller eggs are generally better but would be very happy to have anything, especially if we could receive them in Dresden by the end of the week. A source within Germany or the EU would be ideal, if only to keep shipping costs and customs delays to a minimum.
As an aside, I have a new web project, Octosquid, on the cephalopods of Okinawa and the animals we work with at OIST.
Cheers,
Eric
