Staff

The majority of the following papers relate to Chain's initial search for staff during the setting up of the Biochemistry Department and includes some unsolicited letters of invitations as well as routine job applications and letters of recommendation from colleagues. The picture is far from complete (see especially 1963 correspondence which is mostly Chain's carbons only), but it is nevertheless interesting.

The remainder of the section contains some rather scanty correspondence with and re research students, visiting scientists, etc, accepted or recommended for work at Imperial College, 1963-1976.
