Below is an email that was recently received by one of our students.
I am seeking a solid ecotoxicologist, preferably with avian or terrestrial expertise, to help develop and defend agricultural products. The position is located at FMC Corporation’s R&D Center situated in Ewing, NJ. This individual will design, manage, and participate in scientific work under FIFRA and GLPS and have an opportunity to publish and present with CRO’s at major conferences. One’s efforts will be fairly evenly invested between two key areas:
• Overseeing new studies conducted by contract labs across all aspects of ecotoxicology to ensure high quality science, and
• Providing information for regulatory agencies, customers and FMC personnel, including white papers, product defenses, reports and more.
FMC is one of the worlds’ foremost, diversified chemical companies with leading positions in agricultural, industrial and consumer markets. Not only are we on a strong growth trajectory with double-digit growth, but our philosophy is one of constant evolution.
I invite you to read an insightful description of the opportunity. It includes information like:

Postdoctoral position in pharmacokinetics at LLNL
Dr. Ken Turteltaub recently contacted me to let me know about the postdoctoral position summarized below.
The Postdoctoral Pharmacology Researcher will study how pharmacokinetics and ADME properties are affected by the physicochemical properties of nanoparticles using techniques including accelerator mass spectrometry. As a Postdoc under the Battelle Center for Fundamental and Applied Systems Toxicology (B-FAST) you will be involved in collaborative research with scientists from Battelle and several of the National Laboratories we manage/co-manage, and potentially with other members of the public and private sectors. We envision our collaboration to result in the development of the science and tools that will transform the way safety science and toxicology testing are practiced today.
THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS MUST BE MET TO BE CONSIDERED FOR THIS POSITION:
• Recent PhD in a relevant scientific field i.e., pharmacology, toxicology, biochemistry, chemistry • Demonstrated hands-on experience with various animal models with demonstrated ability to innovate research models
• Prior experience conducting protocol driven research in biologic matrices • Experience working effectively in an interactive, matrixed environment, working with toxicologists, physiologists and chemists toward a common endpoint
• Proven ability to assimilate information quickly and apply knowledge to a broad array of novel situations
To apply for this position, please visit our corporate website www.battelle.org/careers, create a personal profile, upload a CV and apply to requisition number 18273.
