[Aspuru-Guzik group list] Fwd: [G3] CCB Summer TGIFs...

by Leslie Vogt

Hi guys, The TGIFs are almost here!! As I mentioned at group meeting, please email Graham (see below) to volunteer for a day to help set up or clean up for one of these. Thanks, Leslie -- Leslie Vogt Aspuru-Guzik Group Chemistry and Chemical Biology Harvard University ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Jason Beiger <jbeiger(a)fas.harvard.edu> Date: Mon, Jun 8, 2009 at 1:42 PM Subject: [G3] CCB Summer TGIFs... To: gradstudents(a)chemistry.harvard.edu, postdocs(a)chemistry.harvard.edu ...are coming soon, but we need your help! For CCB newcomers -- the summer TGIFs are a weekly series of department-wide socials managed by the GPC. They start Fridays at 5 PM, and run from June 19 until August 28 (except for July 3). Unfortunately, we have too few people to help set and clean them up! Each TGIF requires about one hour set up, and even less time for break down. Please e-mail Graham Sazama (G1, Betley Group, gsazama(a)fas.harvard.edu) if you could spare minimally one hour this summer. Who doesn't love having first dibs on snacks and *be*v*er*ages? Best, The GPC Board _______________________________________________ G3 mailing list G3(a)chem.harvard.edu http://chem.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/g3

[Aspuru-Guzik group list] Fwd: Polymer Physics Positions at The University of Akron

by Alan Aspuru-Guzik

Alán Aspuru-Guzik | Assistant Professor Harvard University | Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology 12 Oxford Street, Room M113 | Cambridge, MA 02138 (617)-384-8188 | http://aspuru.chem.harvard.edu ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Clark,Jacqueline A <jclark2(a)uakron.edu> Date: Wed, Jun 3, 2009 at 12:17 PM Subject: Polymer Physics Positions at The University of Akron To: "alan(a)aspuru.com" <alan(a)aspuru.com> *The Department of Polymer Science of The University of Akron is seeking candidates for two polymer physics positions.* The official advertisements for these positions are attached. 1. Full Professor level. (Send application to “Darrell H. Reneker” reneker(a)uakron.edu. Mention position 4646) 2. Assistant Professor, tenure track. (Send application to "Carri,Gustavo A" gac(a)uakron.edu. Mention position 5600) We seek outstanding candidates who use their knowledge of physics to advance the frontiers of polymer science and serve evolving needs in such fields as environment, energy, biology, security or health. Novel capabilities are sought to investigate: structural intricacy in three dimensions at many scales; chemical heterogeneity; transport mechanisms for electrons, ions, fluids and gases; complex molecular mechanics; information transmission and storage; functional chemistry; interactions with electromagnetic fields and ionizing radiation; thermal properties; energy transforming functions; well defined interfaces; and precise chemistry.
