I apologise for not giving news for a while, but its complicated..I have not logged in for a very long time..

Anyhow wanted to let you know that it is relatively easy to get an appointement in France takes about 1-2 wekks max. I went to the Marie Carie institute and the cost of seeing someone in less than 30 Euros (even when they are well know prof.) So that would be quite a change from the States!

The best is to know who you want to see and request that particular person otherwise you could end up with someone not so useful.

Good luck
