Nucleus Volunteering

The Nucleus readership is greater Massachusetts’ largest source for chemical and biochemical personnel. It reaches more than 5,000 readers each month. In order to maintain the high standards that have been developed for this important NESACS publication we need to add new members to the editorial team. Being part of this team can help you develop organizational and developmental skills as well as help you network with people from large area companies. You should take advantage of this opportunity to increase your skills. In the process you will open up new opportunities for career development.

For further information contact Craig Sergeant, Nucleus Editor
