Association (``IMCA'')

    Notice is hereby given that on July 18, 2000, pursuant to Section 
6(a) of the National Cooperative Research and Production Act of 1993,

Crystallography Association (IMCA) filed written notifications 
simultaneously with the Attorney General and the Federal Trade

legal names following mergers: The Upjohn Company has changed its name 
to Pharmacia and Upjohn Company, Peapack, NJ; G.D. Searle & Co. has 
changed its name to Pharmacia Corporation, Peapack, NJ; and Parke-Davis 
Pharmaceutical Research has changed its name to Pfizer Global Research 
and Development, Ann Arbor Laboratories. Pfizer, Inc., Ann Harbor, MI.
    No other changes have been made in either the membership or planned 
activitity of the group research project. Membership in this group 
research remains open, and IMCA intends to file additional written 
notification disclosing all changes in membership.
    On October 23, 1990, IMCA filed its original notification pursuant 
to Section 6(a) of the Act. The Department of Justice published a 
notice in the Federal Register pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Act on 
December 3, 1990 (55 FR 49953).
    The last notification was filed with the Department on April 8, 
1996. A notice was published in the Federal Register pursuant to 
Section 6(b) of the Act on April 25, 1996 (61 FR 18410).
