Post-doctoral Opportunities at Wayne State University
The Suits Group in the Department of Chemistry at Wayne State University
(http://suitsmac.chem.wayne.edu/~r4/asweb/public_html/suitsgroup/)
has several post-doctoral openings. Opportunities include imaging
applications to chemical reaction dynamics and novel mass
spectrometric methods including new directions in the development of
electrostatic ion traps for tandem mass spectrometry. An overview of
our recent work may be seen in a recent feature article:

The Department includes over 150 PhD students and 30 post-docs.
Located in the heart of Detroit's Cultural Center with numerous
museums, galleries and theaters within walking distance, the 120-acre
main campus is accented by several malls, fountains and gardens. As
a major urban university, Wayne is the site of numerous conferences,
lectures, seminars, films, exhibits, and concerts. Detroit offers a
stimulating urban lifestyle with a modest cost of living and access
to a Great Lakes recreational activities. Interested parties may
email a CV and two letters of recommendation or contact me for
additional information.
