Dear all,

Next week small construction works are planned that might slightly affect the daily operation (mostly accessibility/corridor) of the Facility.

In the next weeks we will also need to shut down phytotron #22 and #23 (one by the other) for a significant amount of time.

No other phytotrons will be affected!

GMI -1: Tuesday 3^rd Dec and Wednesday 4^th Dec

Replacement of a pipe in the corridor (this particular pipe is not at all related to the operation of our Facility).

MFPL 8^th floor: 2.5 weeks from the 2^nd December on

CO2 System installation in #22 and #23

In case of any questions please do not hesitate to contact me.

Best, Jakub
