Unusual tack for a consumer products company. Here's hoping S.C. Johnson has success with this.
(TIL Fisk Johnson has a Ph.D. in physics.)
1. HELPING CHEMISTS FIND JOBS IN A TOUGH MARKET. 2. TOWARDS A QUANTITATIVE UNDERSTANDING OF THE QUALITY OF THE CHEMISTRY JOB MARKET.
What's the job market like for chemists? Dude -- it's always bad.*
How bad is it? How the heck should I know? Quantifying the chemistry job market is what this blog is about. That, and helping chemists find jobs.

ReplyDeleteand don't we live twice as long these days, compared to lifespans during almost all of human history, because of chemicals
ReplyDeleteI'm happy that a large, well known consumer products company packed up the courage to come right out and say that everything's a chemical. Well done.
