Dear Josh,
< ' 1 3
Je moved here eight weeks ago, It s 2 brand new lab., and

we have excellent facilities for research, which we do full time.
My colleagues are a nutritionist, an organic chenist, and two
physical chemists; and a bacteriolovist is ex ected soon, who
will comolete the senior st-ff. Dr Youn’, the director, is
himself? interested in carrasheenin at the monens; but the whole
Laboratory is devoted primarily tke to 'oure' research on alene,

in the first instence, end polymers and nacronolecvles in veneral.

Joyce is retyping her thesis, now in its second draft. ohne
is here as 2 guest research worker 2t the moment: but I hove sne
may be a little more self-sup orting net yeer. Ita going on

with the Chlamydomonas business chiefly, and also »votterins round
with = few minor projects.

i wes loth to leave Yale in many ways, out this seened a good
Ooportunity to get a little new experience: and my instructorsnip

= pp

was enyway only on @ year-to-year basis.

I think you might know Gordin Kaplan, who ¥s here now:
otherwise there seems to be noone who can tell coli from crassa.
But the suppvort of all the chemists around us ~- most conzenial
peonole, incidentslly, - makes uo for this.

Jith best regards to Ssther;
io ?

Yours sincerely,

Dg.

Ralph A. Lewin.
