1. HELPING CHEMISTS FIND JOBS IN A TOUGH MARKET. 2. TOWARDS A QUANTITATIVE UNDERSTANDING OF THE QUALITY OF THE CHEMISTRY JOB MARKET.
Multiple sources have indicated that Corteva Agriscience chemistry (both process and discovery) has suffered a pretty large layoff. That's pretty bad news, and I'm sorry to hear that, especially since Indianapolis does not offer many chemists the opportunity to get a new job without moving.
