[Dana Bresee Keeth]

Hello again everyone, I just got this additional information from Scott 
Tirrell: "Regeneron contacted me and they wanted to clarify that the 
Regeneron opportunity is equally geared towards scientists looking for 
both their first or second postdoc."

Regards,

I just wanted to forward you [information on] Regeneron's Postdoctoral 
Training Program. Although it is really geared towards graduating PhD 
students, I thought there may be some current postdocs that might be 
interested. Let me know if you have any questions.

Best,
