Researchers plan to generate as many as 400,000 partial sequences of genes that are expressed during the embryonic and fetal stages in an effort to survey the entire set of mouse genes. The availability of these gene fragments, or expressed sequence tags (ESTs), should accelerate the rate at which HHMI researchers and other biomedical scientists find disease- related genes as well as genes that control normal cell function. The $2.3 million two-year project will be conducted at the School of Medicine and will be directed by Robert H.

    Washington University in St. Louis Search for a Chancellor Page 1 An invitation to apply for the position of CHANCELLOR THE SEARCH Over the last generation, a few American universities have emerged as increasingly eminent and prosperous, attracting ever more academically successful student bodies and more distinguished faculties. Washington University in St. Louis, a great, private and constantly advancing university, seeks an exceptional leader to serve as its next Chancellor. The University has been guided by two remarkable and consistent Chancellors, over a combined tenure of 46 years. Washington University has emerged, over this time, from a commuter university with a great medical school to become one of the most competitive universities in the nation, increasingly distinguished and prosperous, attracting one of the strongest student bodies in the nation and luring excellent faculty to its ranks. Washington University educated 15,155 full-time students in FY2017, divided almost equally between undergraduate and graduate/professional students. The average SAT score for the entering first year class was 1510. The FY2018 operating budget totals $3.2 billion with revenues up 5% from the previous year. As of June 30, 2017, the market value of the University’s endowment was $7.2 billion, a number that has risen steadily with successful capital campaigns and investments. The current capital campaign had an original target of $2.2 billion, which the University raised to $2.5 billion later in the campaign. The campaign has already exceeded its new capital campaign target with six months to go and with strong prospects still in serious discussions with the leadership.
