Dr. John Gibbons OTA. [stamped, FEB 24 1988] Just barely (a board meeting I scheduled for May 5 has just been cancelled) . . . . I might be able to match my high interest with difficult availability of time to join your review panel. The information material included stresses the possibilities of conflict of interest as I have had many roles in the scientific and industrial development of biotechnology. Please (and with your counsel) review this carefully. Yours sincerely, Joshua
