<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"> I’m recruiting juniors, seniors and graduate students in Chemistry, Biology, Brain and Cognitive Sciences, Biological Engineering, and Chemical Biological Engineering to join <a href="http://gsl.mit.edu/" target="_blank">Global
