Get Your CV Ready

Oct 16, 2009

Jessica Palmer at Bioephemera blogs about an opportunity through the American Society for Cell Biology, which won an NIH GO grant that will be put toward building "The Cell: An Image Library." The society aims to hire eight part-time, offsite microscopists or cell biologists "to assist in the development of an extensive online library." Palmer writes, "While this sounds like it will involve a bit of (virtual) paper-pushing, it could also be a great chance to get involved in creating a substantial bioimagery resource for both the scientific community and (I hope) the public."
