Startup seeking Ph. D. level synthetic inorganic chemist

Submitted by Adam Johnson / Harvey Mudd College on Mon, 02/16/2009 - 14:01

My startup client in the Southwest seeks a synthetic inorganic chemist. The applicant should have a Ph.D. in Chemistry or Materials Science with at least 10 years of hands-on laboratory experience synthesizing and processing complex oxides using both wet chemical and thin film techniques.
