> I would greatly appreciate it if you could bring to the attention of

> Operations Manager at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston.
>
> I will shortly be moving to the Human Biological Chemistry and Genetics
> Department as well as the Sealy Center of Molecular Sciences at UTMB. We
> hope to establish a major NMR Center as part of the University's structural
> biology initiative. We have purchased a 750, 600 and wide-bore 400 MHz NMR
> instruments that will be part of the initial instrumentation in the NMR
> Structural Biology Center. We have our own separate building with
> remodeling funds provided by an NIH building grant. The Structural Biology
> Center is envisioned to ultimately include four or more biomolecular NMR
> spectroscopists, several x-ray crystallographers, and additional molecular
> modeling faculty members in the area of biomolecular NMR structure. Indeed
> in recognition of the effort put forward by the University, another major
> foundation supporting structural biology has recently indicated to us that
> they will be funding our Center.
>
> As indicated in the enclosed announcement, we are looking for an NMR
> operations manager who will be able to interact with the additional
> biomolecular NMR faculty. In addition, I personally have funds for hiring
> of several new post-doctorals in the area of protein and nucleic acid NMR
> structure.
>
> Finally, we will be hiring several additional tenure-track NMR
> faculty at junior and senior levels. I would appreciate any information
> you might provide on candidates for these positions.

> I will be attending the Experimental NMR Conference this April 10-15,

> post-doctoral positions, or the faculty positions who would be interested
