European scientists from different working</div>
<div>groups the opportunity to find out more about BASF's
research activities.</div>
<div>Participants will not only have the opportunity to
talk to young chemists</div>
<div>from our central research facilities but also
to meet representatives of</div>
<div>the management. We would also like to present and discuss with
participants</div>

opportunities for chemists within the</div>
<div>BASF Group.</div>

<div>Our Agricultural Center is located in one of the largest
research parks in</div>
<div>the world in proximity to and close affiliation with the
three illustrious</div>
<div>universities that form the points of a triangle around it:
Duke University</div>
<div>in Durham, the University of North
Carolina in Chapel Hill and North</div>
<div>Carolina State University in Raleigh.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>The participants are guests of BASF during the course. BASF
will cover the</div>
<div>travel expenses and care for board and lodgings.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>We look forward very much to receiving applications
from postdocs with an</div>
