Dear All,

Although the main focus of the below advertised position is not 
necessarily microscopy, but the past discussions showed that there are 
many HT-screening experts reading this list, so still I find it useful 
to advertise it here. I'd very much appreciate if you could spread it 
among your colleagues/friends.

The Light Microscopy Centre of the ETH Zurich is looking for a Head of 
Screening Unit

The future Head of Screening Unit will be responsible for the

innovative screens based on siRNA or cDNA technologies together with a 
small team.  His/her tasks will also include quality management of the 
different projects and intensive communication with SystemsX/ETH Zurich
