Hi Viper,

I know many of you are aware of this (many of schools have recently received this lectureship), but I thought i would just post this up here.

I think its great that the The Camille & Henry Dreyfus Foundation has this lectureship, it seems like a great way to bring in researchers from premier research institutions to interact with undergraduates at primarily undergraduate institutions. The deadline is coming up on May 20th.

Looks like its been used in the past to bring out people like Dan Nocera, Robert Grubbs, and Roald Hoffman.

Hello Ionic Viper members,

The 2013 CENTC Summer School has been announced. I went as a grad student to the 2010 one, and would go this year but I will probably be busy moving from my postdoc to my new job. 

Here's the website:

According to the website:

Sabbatical Replacement Faculty Position at Harvey Mudd College. The Chemistry Department invites applications for a one-year visiting position for the 2013-2014 academic year. The successful candidate will teach general chemistry, general chemistry laboratory, and an advanced course in their area of specialty. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to involve students in original research. Excellent facilities for teaching and research are available, including state-of-the-art instrumentation (see www.chem.hmc.edu). A Ph.D.

This is a great opportunity for undergrad research. For full disclosure, I wasn't a part of CENTC when I was in graduate school, but I saw many parts of it and I think it would be a great group of poeple to work with. My PhD advisor is a part of it. They also have multiple locations.

One year of college level teaching experience or equivalent (e.g., teaching assistantships), a demonstrated commitment to undergraduate teaching, and a successful interview that will include a demonstration of teaching ability are required.

Dear VIPEr Friends,

Have you ever used a PhET Simulation?  If yes, we need your feedback!  If no, we also need your feedback!  Please take the following survey to help PhET develop better educational tools for you to use for free.  Thanks so much for your help!

Dear VIPEr friends,

The PhET Project at CU-Boulder (http://phet.colorado.edu) is seeking applicants for a chemistry education post-doc position focusing on the design, integration, and study of PhET simulations for College Chemistry at the introductory / general chemistry level.  I've been working on this project for the last year and a half, and it's really cool!
