BASF Postdoc Forum
August 17 - 19, 2006
North Carolina Agricultural Research Center of BASF Corporation
Raleigh, North Carolina
Participants: European Postdocs working at a University in the US

BASF Aktiengesellschaft in Ludwigshafen, Germany, and BASF Corporation, USA
will  be  holding  a  two-day  forum  together  with  40  chemists  who are
completing their postdoctoral studies in the US. The forum is scheduled for
August  17  -  19,  at  the  North Carolina Agricultural Research Center in
Raleigh.

The  forum  will  offer  young  European  scientists from different working
groups  the  opportunity to find out more about BASF's research activities.
Participants  will  not only have the opportunity to talk to young chemists
from  our  central  research facilities but also to meet representatives of
the management. We would also like to present and discuss with participants
the  diverse  employment  and  career opportunities for chemists within the
BASF Group.

Our  Agricultural Center is located in one of the largest research parks in
the  world in proximity to and close affiliation with the three illustrious
universities  that form the points of a triangle around it: Duke University
in  Durham,  the  University  of  North  Carolina  in Chapel Hill and North
Carolina State University in Raleigh.

The  participants are guests of BASF during the course. BASF will cover the
travel expenses and care for board and lodgings.

We  look  forward very much to receiving applications from postdocs with an
excellent background in preparative organic or inorganic chemistry, polymer
chemistry or technical chemistry!

form, letter of
              motivation, resume (CV)) to kathrin.becker at basf.com
