Organizations in Virginia hold 1.6% of NIH projects in the 50 states and DC, and 1.6% of the peptide-related ones. In the South Atlantic, North Carolina (188), Maryland (186), Florida (167) and Georgia (144) have more, and four neighbors have fewer.
Universities and research institutes with peptide-related NIH projects in Virginia include:
- University of Virginia · Charlottesville49 projects
- Virginia Commonwealth University · Richmond20 projects
- Virginia Tech · Blacksburg18 projects
- Old Dominion University · Norfolk3 projects
- George Mason University · Fairfax1 project
Summer heat and the parcel
July afternoons in Virginia average 86 °F, by NOAA’s 1991–2020 statewide averages. In the South Atlantic, Florida (92 °F), South Carolina (91 °F), Georgia (91 °F), Washington, DC (90 °F), North Carolina (88 °F), Delaware (87 °F) and Maryland (87 °F) run hotter. A parcel left on a porch through a summer afternoon gets warmer than the forecast. Bring it in on arrival and move the vials to a freezer at −4 °F that day.
Winter cold and condensation
January nights average 26 °F. West Virginia (23 °F) and Maryland (25 °F) are colder. A vial that arrives cold should still reach room temperature before the vacuum is broken, so moisture from the room does not condense on the powder.
The full guidance is on the storage and handling page.
