I am interested in hiring a lab tech to work in my lab in the</div>
<div>Chemistry Department at Harvard. I thought a graduating senior might<br>
be interested in the job, perhaps as a stepping stone to graduate or<br>
medical school. Can you please forward this notice to any relevant<br>
students? Thank you!<br>
<br>
Best wishes,<br>
