under which you serve as a member of the Scientific Board of the
Company expires on September 30, 1995.  Biogen greatly values your
input on the Scientific Board, and would like to renew the Agreement
for an additional  three-year period commencing as of September 30,
1995 and ending on September 30, 1998, on the same terms and
conditions.  In connection with renewal of the Agreement, the Company

       If you agree to renewal of the Agreement on these terms, please

attention of Anne Marie Cook at Biogen.

     I look forward to your continued participation on the Scientific
Board.
