Dear Listserv Members, Last August Intel chief Andy Grove donated $5 million to University of California San Francisco to support embryonic stem cell research. It recently came to my attention that he will match any private donations earmarked for the Stem Cell Discovery Fund. UCSF says that challenge cash will be used to recruit new stem cell specialists and give grants to current faculty members to encourage them to study stem cells. I have made a donation because I feel this is an excellent opportunity to have my dollars work double for a cause I deeply believe in. Listserv members who wish to find out more about the matching funds and how to contribute can contact: Erik C. Rausch Director, University Development Programs University of California, San Francisco 44 Montgomery Street, Suite 2200 San Francisco, CA 94143-0248 TEL. 415-502-1758 FAX 415-476-1590 EMAIL [log in to unmask] Sincerely and Happy New Year to you all, Suedee ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
