As you have no doubt heard, the Washington, DC, region is recovering from a major snowstorm, with another on the way. Transportation is still challenging in places, and some people have experienced extended power outages. The Federal Government was closed yesterday and remains closed today.

Many NIGMS staff members are checking e-mail and doing other work remotely, but staff are not in the office to answer your phone calls.

Please bear with us as we do our best to keep working despite our unusually snowy weather.
