Number of new workers filing for unemployment dropped again last week. Finally a real trend is developing.
New claims fell by 22,000 to a rate of 432,000. That is the lowest number since July of 2008, just before the bottom dropped out of the market.

Seahorse Bioscience XF96 Analyzer is named one of 2009’s top innovations by The Scientist magazine.
Pretty heady territory for a relatively new company. I believe they were founded in 2000 and currently have about 120 employees. No Thermo Fisher, but often the newer, nimbler companies are the ones to come up with the most interesting products.
Their XF96 analyzer is said to be the first instrument that can measure the two [...]

The Rothberg Institute for Childhood Diseases in Connecticut is looking for scientists and bioinformatics people. Both full-time and Internships are available.
Being a for profit (we hope) recruiting firm, it may seem unusual to see us “giving away” job leads, but I have a soft spot in my heart for the non-profit organizations that are out there trying to find cures for childhood diseases.
