Daily Pump Trap: 1/25/11 edition

Good morning! Between January 20 and January 24, there were 35 new positions posted on the ACS Careers website. Of these, 15 (43%) are academically connected and 1 (3%) are from our friends at Kelly Scientific Resources.

Butte, MT: Resodyn Corporation is a stalwart of the ACS Careers board; they've been advertising positions for chemists since 2008, it seems. Anyway, they're looking for a Ph.D. polymer chemist / materials scientist with 5+ years in the coating industry.

Trenton, NJ: Redpoint Bio is looking for two M.S./Ph.D. medicinal chemists to perform research towards curing diabetes.

Houston, TX: Total Petrochemicals (the French oil giant) has two positions, a plant support position (Ph.D. chemist) and a catalyst group Ph.D.

Lexington, MA: You know, sometimes a job posting is smarter than I am. Here's the description for RainDance Technologies: "The core RainStorm™ technology empowers customers to conduct de novo science in an ultra high throughput, simple, flexible, and low cost manner. RainDance’s commercial products include instruments and high-value consumables and reagents for sequence enrichment for next-generation sequencing, ultra-deep sequencing, and methylation analysis." Oh, okay. They're looking for a Ph.D. synthetic/polymer chemist who can work on fluorinated block copolymers for their core technology. Actually, sounds pretty interesting.

Good on ya: Kelly's one position is quite relevant. I like it.
