</font></div>
<div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><font face="Monaco">We will be investing ~£17M to establish the Astbury BioStructure Laboratory, which will be equipped with a UHF NMR spectrometer, two 300kV energy-filtered TEMs with direct detectors, and scientific support.
The aim is to provide truly world-class facilities for structural biology projects and collaborations, which will be embedded within the vibrant, interdisciplinary Astbury Centre for Structural Molecular Biology (<a href="http://www.astbury.leeds.ac.uk/">http://www.astbury.leeds.ac.uk</a>). </font></div>

</font></div>
<div><font face="Monaco">Work to deliver this is beginning right now, and we </font><span style="font-family: Monaco;">are actively seeking </span><span style="font-family: Monaco;">outstanding scientists at all levels to join us in Leeds and take advantage
of these facilities. Please contact us to informally discuss future opportunities.</span></div>
