Dear Bio-1 Community,

Welcome to the January issue of the Bio-1 Buzz.  Please visit our website www.bio-one.org  to discover new job postings, post your resume,  and to learn about free training opportunities for unemployed workers.

To complement our NJ Biosciences Career Brochure, Portal and Curriculum, a series of webinars for teachers is scheduled for the spring.  If you are or know a high school teacher, you will want to attend the upcoming webinars that show how to use the newly developed NJ Bioscience Careers Curriculum.

This month, we are spotlighting Aestus Therapeutics, Inc., an emerging biotech company that is sponsoring a NJ Life Sciences Fellow.  Please pass along the Buzz.

Sincerely,

Executive Director, WIRED Bio-1
