Hi everybody,

Well it seems that despite the current situation, many of us are
advertizing jobs within our core facilities - my turn now.  Please could
you pass this on to any suitable and interested candidates. While I can
imagine that NYC might not have seemed like an attractive destination in
March (!), we seem to be doing much better now - as long as you are OK
with wearing face coverings!

Thanks!

Alison
