Further to ATels #2214, #2229, and #2249, we report the discovery of supernovae in Pan-STARRS1 Medium Deep Survey imaging data obtained from 2010 Jan. 10 - Jan. 20 by the 1.8-m PS1 survey telescope on Haleakala, Hawaii. Images were processed through the Harvard/JHU transient pipeline and 86 good supernova candidates were identified. Sixteen of these candidates were selected for spectroscopic followup and have been confirmed using GMOS on the 8-m Gemini-North and Gemini-South telescopes (PI: Berger) and MagE on the 6.5-m Magellan Clay telescope (PI: Foley).
