Dear Pat:

I am not sure how one submits to this list, but I’ve pasted below a job announcement that I hope might be of interest to postgraduate students, among others.  Please let me know if you need something more from me to get this circulated or if there are questions regarding any aspect of it.  Also, it’s perfectly fine for people to circulate this as far and wide as they wish.  Thanks!

All the best,

J. Dillon Brown
