15. Distribution Schools 2019 TIPE subject “Ocean” ➔lots of enquiries (mail,

    phone) since September 2019 ➔significant increase in (free) orders - Rethink of policy? - Development of educational kits?

22. Teaching 2019 RCC implication in training courses 2019: • 26

    days teaching • 412 person days (students) • 355 strains

23. Customer survey • Link sent with order and then sent

    again one month later • Answer rate : 9.4% (30.5% in 2016) • Customers are globally satisfied • They would like to be able to order media Feedback through web site • Questions concerning culture shipment • Billing Customer feedback

24. RCC Outlook 2020 ▪ CRBM ▪ LEDs for 4°C, 15°

    and 22° C rooms ▪ Quality Management / Traceability ▪ ISO9001 certification for joint EMBRC-France BRC by end 2020 ▪ Application for EU Register of ABS compliant collections ▪ Cryopreservation ▪ Continue cryopreserving strains for which protocol is OK ▪ Test new protocols for cryo-recalcitrant strains (diatoms, dinoflagellates,…) ▪ DB / website ▪ Makeover, improved stats, inclusion of BLAST tool (already paid) ▪ New logo ! ▪ Training course ▪ Basic 3 day culturing/identification course in May 2020 ▪ Projects ▪ Moore Foundation – Microalgal transformation, collaboration Banyuls (until November 2020) ▪ EBB, ASSEMBLE+ (ABS, CRB management) ▪ Current applications: ANR2020, H2020 screening, Moore symbiosis
