The laboratory of David Wiest at the Fox Chase Cancer Center invites applicants for a post-doctoral position. Our overall goal is to understand how changes in the function of the endoplasmic reticulum during thymocyte development can regulate both expression and function of the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) complex and as a result have profound effects on T cell development. Particular research interests include understanding: 1) the mechanism whereby immature thymocytes determine if the TCRb locus has rearranged properly; 2) how thymocytes distinguish positive from negative selection signals; 3) how TCR expression is controlled during development by trans-acting factors in the endoplasmic reticulum; and 4) the role of tyrosine kinases in regulating protein transport. I seek candidates that are bright and motivated. While experience in molecular biology and an understanding of both immunology and cell biology would be preferred, they are not essential. This position is available immediately. Interested applicants should send their CV as well as the names of three references to: David L.

This firm, a $60 million supplier of tools for the biotechnology industry, has achieved profitability and is experiencing rapid growth. The executive we seek for this job will have a critical role reporting to the founder and CEO, with elements of both a traditional CFO post as well as many areas of involvement in corporate development and operations. Our CFO would be a key element of a group of senior executives that is doing international or multi-company Joint Ventures and providing input and leadership on the financial side. Therefore, a significant experience in creative business relationships and the variations of financings that are synonymous with biotechnology would be important. The requirements include 8-10 years of financial management experience from the biotechnology, pharmaceutical, or high-tech industries. Specific industry relevance is not as important as the ability to integrate well into a heavily R & D-oriented environment. Desired Traits Communication skills - The ability to work well with a company that manages key projects and product development in a matrix management process. This means being one part of a 3-4 person key management team on all projects, and not having the glory of "taking it over the finish line." Instead, the team takes it over the finish line. Financial acumen - Strong knowledge of the finance markets, both from the SEC side and the private deal-making that is prevalent in the biotech and high-tech industries. If not from the biotech environment, this CFO must have an ability to find out "who's who and where they are in biotech." Management ability - There are fewer direct reports for senior executives in this company, and more involvement in cross-departmental team efforts - either as a team leader, mentor, or participant. This manager will have the current finance manager and controller reporting to him or her. As stated earlier, just as important as the ability to "motivate the troops" is the ability to work well with staff of all levels and through a variety of relationships. This position represents an excellent opportunity for a broad-minded financial executive to make an impact upon a growth company at a critical stage of their development. Our client is aggressively recruiting, including a competitive compensation package with an opportunity for equity.

The following objectives are being persued in our laboratory: 1.to study the function of selected transcription factors whose expression is restricted to primitive hematopoietic stem cells, 2.to use these genes in order to manipulate the behaviour of hematopoietic stem cells and, 3.to identify and develop novel strategies to optimize gene transfer to these cells. These goals are being addressed by using different experimental strategies such as experimental bone marrow traplantation procedures (murine model), retroviral gene transfer, generation of cDNA library starting from a single cell, in vitro differentioation of embryonic stem (ES) cells and generation of transgenic and knock mice.

Les objectifs de notre laboratoire sont: 1.d'étudier la fonction de certain faceurs de transcription dont l'expression est spécifique aux cellules les plus primitives de la moelle osseuse, 2.d'utilieser ces gènes nouvellement caractérisés pour générer des cellules souches hemopoiétiques ayant une capcité accrue de repopulation, 3.de développer de nouvelles stratégies pour optimiser le transfert de gènes à ces cellules. Les principaux modèles expérimentaux utilisées pour ces études incluent la tranplantation de moelle osseuse (modèle murin), le transfert de gène(s) à l'aide de rétrovirus recombinants, la génération de libraires d'ADN complémentaires à partir d'une seule cellule purifiée, la différentiation in vitro de cellules embryonnaire de souris (ES), et la génération de souris transgéniques et "knock out".

This company has developed a unique reputation in the Accelerated Drug Discovery and Advanced Diagnostics market sectors, by custom-designing and manufacturing instruments for life sciences applications. Since 1988, the firm has been building a proprietary bank of technology in a number of niches which can be applied in OEM development work for partner companies all over the world, as well as in developing company's own brand-name products. The executive we seek will come from a background of sales, marketing, and strategic planning preferably with prior experience in the area of drug development. Because this company has developed specific modules that can be applied to any number of industry niches, one of the major objectives of this newly created position will be to study the market sectors, provide accurate market research information, and launch the marketing efforts required to succeed in each of these niches. One of the company's major successes in the last year has been in the development of instrumentation for Accelerated Drug Discovery. This market sector will be a major focus early-on for the marketing and sales effort. Responsibilities of the position will include: * Identify new brand-name products and markets by auditing the company's existing proprietary bank of technology and its applications. This senior executive will work closely with engineering teams to define these products and their requirements. * Identifying new OEM partnerships and successfully negotiating profitable contracts. * Strengthening relationships with current OEM partner companies in order to extend and expand current projects. * Close cooperation with project managers to see that customer requirements are being met. * Functioning as the primary contact in setting up new collaborations, OEM partnerships (including contract negotiations) in a manner that will free up the company President while still allowing him to become active if necessary in the later stages of the discussion. * Assist the company President in financing campaign and investor relationship process. * Collaborating with the company President on the development of the company's strategic plan. * Managing the Advertising, Promotional, and Public Relations programs. The requirements for this position (title flexible upon qualifications; VP or Director level) would include an advanced degree in the life sciences (preferred) as well as 7-10 years (minimum) of selling, marketing, and strategic experience in a life sciences industry sector (Accelerated Drug Discovery, Research Instrumentation, Advanced Diagnostics, etc.). Because of the nature of this unique selling process (focus on relationships, long lead times, extensive negotiations, customized technology, etc.) it would be more appropriate for a candidate to come >From a business development position of this sort as opposed to marketing an "off the shelf" product line. There is a huge potential for both personal and company growth, as this company has already achieved profitability and is currently undergoing additional financing that will aid future prospects -- allowing the company to expand into new markets and technologies. A recent major newspaper featured the firm on the front page of the business section, >From which we quote: "[This Client] is successful because it underpromises and overperforms and has always put top priority on speeding products to market.

Date: 9 Jul 1996 17:56:10 -0700 Organization: BIOSCI International Newsgroups for Molecular Biology Lines: 155 Sender: daemon@net.bio.net Approved: biosci-help@net.bio.net Distribution: world Message-ID: <199607080900.CAA26250@net.bio.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: net.bio.net BIOSCI is about halfway to its funding goal!! I'm interrupting the usual monthly posting of the BIOSCI miniFAQ to bring you up to date on BIOSCI fundraising progress, a topic of concern to your future use of this resource. Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this message carefully. Last year we announced that BIOSCI was going to adopt the U.S. Public Broadcasting System model to fund its operations after our DOE/NSF grant runs out later this year. Unlike PBS, we are not soliciting contributions from users; we are only selling ads on our Web pages solely to cover our operating costs. Our goal is to seek sponsorships until we build up an operating reserve of about $100,000 and then cease further promotions until we need to build the reserve back up. (The accountants among our readership will be familiar with the problem of deferred revenue which we can not safely utilize until ads have been displayed for a period of time.) We are only about halfway to our funding goal and need to raise further funds to avoid having to curtail services at net.bio.net. Fundraising is time-consuming, however, and we need your help as explained further below. Our operating costs consist of our network connection, phone lines, hardware maintenance (we will be getting newer and faster hardware soon!), plus 0.7 FTE of salaries covering UNIX systems admin, technical support, quality assurance, i.e., testing, of our system, and administrative costs (such as the time it takes to actually find/write/call potential sponsors and raise money!). Although the BIOSCI staff does get compensated for a portion of the work that they do, this project has always received a lot of free after-hours and "vacation" time labor, so we hope that no one will begrudge the time that we do charge to the project to serve you. All of the three part-time staff members, Dave Mack, Julie Lawrence, and myself, have full time day jobs and families in addition to working hard to keep this service running for all of you. Julie and Dave Mack are subcontractors for BIOSCI; my time that is charged to the project defrays a portion of my regular salary instead of adding to my income. Besides having to relocate the project, we were very busy this last year building new infrastructure such as our WWW hypermail interface to the system. This was released last December along with scores of WAIS indices for the newsgroups. Virtually everything is complete, although we do continue to find and fix bugs (many through your helpful feedback!). We are still having some problems with our WAIS indexing. The archives continue to grow rapidly. We are running over 100 indexes now versus three previously and any systems crashes cause greater havoc with the indexing than before! We are still working to fix this as fast as our resources permit and appreciate your patience, but we have been able to automate a lot of the infrastructure to reduce labor as compared to past requirements. We have also implemented new software to make moderation of BIOSCI/bionet newsgroups much easier and combat the growing problem of Internet junk mail and USENET "spamming." About 20% of our groups are now moderated, many of them by the BIOSCI staff! This, for example, made a major difference last year in the quality of content in our EMPLOYMENT/bionet.jobs.offered newsgroup which many commercial concerns and recruiting firms are using **without charge** to recruit candidates for positions in the biological sciences. We are also now in a position to have sponsors for individual newsgroups as you will have noticed if you have visited http://www.bio.net/ and clicked on "Access the BIOSCI/bionet newsgroups" recently. So, how can you help?? ---------------------- As noted above it can take a lot of time to contact potential sponsors if I have to do it all myself. Our request is quite simple. You can do two important things which will take very little time for you individually. First, please use our WWW system at http://www.bio.net/ to access the archives. You can now post or reply to messages via your Web browser. Your usage helps attract sponsors. If you contact any of our sponsors, please be sure to thank them for supporting BIOSCI. It is critical for them to get this feedback if they are to continue their sponsorship for the long term. Second, if you work for a company or organization that provides products or services of interest to the biology community, please pass this message on to your marketing or marketing communications department or other appropriate group. Please ask them to help support BIOSCI by sponsoring our Web site and explain the uses and benefits of the system to the biology community. If they are interested, they can then contact us for further information at our tech support address, biosci-help@net.bio.net. Our hope is to quickly raise several large corporate/institutional sponsors on our heavily-used WWW locations (some stats appended below), and then end this sponsorship campaign so that our resources can continue to be used for service provision, not fundraising. Many of our specialty newsgroup WWW archives are still used by small communities of scientists (and they haven't been heavily promoted yet). While these may be valuable niche markets to some advertisers, it will generate more labor and overhead having to find these sponsors, fairly price the locations, and deal with lots of smaller sponsorships than fewer mid-to large sponsors. We are striving to keep our operation as lean and efficient as possible since we are not trying to make careers out of running BIOSCI. We are trying if at all possible to avoid the administrative overhead entailed with processing lots of small payments to reach our fundraising goals. I'd like to thank all of you for your help in advance. In helping us, you are also helping yourselves, not only in keeping this resource available for all of the both large and small research communities that we serve, but also by alleviating the need for us to go back and compete with researchers for tight grant dollars! We promised NSF when we were awarded the BIOSCI grant that we would carry out this mission to make the service self-supporting. With your help, we will succeed in continuing BIOSCI's work into its second decade. Thank you very much!
