[Zinc-fans] "computational Medicinal Chemistry" masters program - requesting suggestions

[John J. Irwin]

Hi Elite 158

I don't think that your question is naive - but it is difficult. I do 
not have any specific recommendations except - be creative and keep trying.

I would prefer that zinc-fans not become a job seekers board, since 
there are plenty of other venues for that purpose already.
