Well!: It's the first one-pager in a while, with Genentech coming in strong with one of their old "BECAUSE" ads. Gilead and Grace post a nice set of positions, too. 

Good luck with that: Novartis is looking for a senior EH&S manager for their Shanghai, China site. Not to get too overly cynical, but can you imagine what that job's going to be like? You're basically going to be the senior EH&S manager in China for Novartis, too. Um, no thanks.  

I don't believe you: Gilead's rather lovely ad has the tagline "Careers for Life." Well, yes, but, well, no, I think you're trying to fool me.  


So as I was sayin': W.R. Grace is looking for a R&D scientist in their batteries program. Desired traits? Ph.D. with 1 to 5 years experience in inorganic chemistry with battery experience.  


Small college of the week: Southern Connecticut State University (New Haven, CT, student population: 7002 - SA-LUTE!) is looking for an assistant professor for physical chemistry. So if you want to be a professor at the other school in town (which has some serious football alumni!), this might be the job for you!

    Now THERE is a party school. And the neighborhood, was nice for a while, and now it sucks.

    And the best part, it's NOT at Yale!

    Yale employees have some of the lowest morale I have ever witnessed, from top to bottom.
