Daily Pump Trap: 5/11/10 edition

Good morning! Between May 6 and May 10, there have been 21 new positions posted on the ACS Careers website. 6 positions (29%) are academically oriented and 1 (5%) position was with Kelly Scientific Resources.

But are there sharks?: LaserGen is looking for a Ph.D. synthetic organic chemist with experience in nucleotide chemistry. The significance of the company name is not immediately obvious.

Plastics!: Dow Chemical Company is looking for a Ph.D. polymer chemist (new grads considered) for its polyethylene product research division.

Lots to see: Evans Analytical Group is looking for a B.S./M.S./Ph.D. scientist with experience in analysis with electron microscopy. I'm not familiar with areas of chemistry that use EM, but hey -- maybe there are.

Novan: Novan desires a M.S./Ph.D. process chemist with 5+ years of experience with pharmaceutical synthesis. Good luck!

  1. Do you think it would increase my chances of getting hired at LaserGen if I dressed as Goldmember for the interview?

  2. It's a start-up. If Goldmember is an expert heterocycle guy, they might buy in.

    To be fair, their technology sounds pretty cool:

    "The technology platforms rest on development of novel fluorescent nucleotides for application of a cyclic reversible termination (CRT) method and development of a novel method of fluorescent detection using Pulsed Multiline Excitation (PME)."
