Jefferson Lab is pleased to announce a successful conclusion to the  
international search for scientists to fill two key positions at the  
laboratory:  the Associate Project Manager (APM) for Physics for the  
12 GeV Upgrade and the Hall D Group Leader.

Dr. Glenn Young has accepted the position of APM for Physics in the  
Upgrade project and will be joining the laboratory August 31.  Glenn  
received his Ph.D. in 1977 from MIT for work carried out at the BNL  
dual tandem van de Graaff facility.  He joined ORNL in 1978 as a  
Wigner Fellow to work at HHIRF.  In 1986 his group at ORNL moved their  
efforts to the CERN SPS as part of the relativistic heavy-ion program  
then starting there, participating in the series of experiments WA80,  
WA93 and WA98.  He is one of the original members of the PHENIX  
collaboration at RHIC at BNL, serving as deputy project manager and  
deputy spokesman, with project responsibilities for electronics, data- 
acquisition and online computing.  Since 2002 he has been director of  
the Physics Division at ORNL.  He has been a member of the JLab PAC  
and various advisory groups to the Lab since the early 1990s and is  
looking forward to working on the 12-GeV Project.

Dr. Eugene Chudakov has accepted the position of Hall D leader.   
Eugene received his Ph.D. in 1987 from Dubna for research on  
hadroproduction of hyperons and heavy flavors carried out at the  
Serpukhov accelerator.  From 1989 to 1998 he was at CERN doing  
research on charm physics, hyperon polarization and search for exotic  
resonances using the Omega-spectrometer.  He joined JLab in 1998, and  
has been involved in a broad variety of experiments in Hall A, with  
particular emphasis on the parity violation program in the hall, and  
on the design and maintenance of major equipment in the Hall,  
including both beam polarimetry and reaction product calorimetry.   
Eugene has been serving as Acting Hall D leader for the last six  
months, and so the transition will be immediate and seamless.
Please join us in welcoming Glenn to Jefferson Lab and in thanking  
Eugene for a job well done as Acting Hall D leader and congratulating  
him on his promotion.

Regards,
Claus Rode, Allison Lung, and Larry Cardman
