Jobs pages

Advertise your MIP jobs, including post-doc and PhD positions on the Society for Molecular Imprinting website (https://mipsoc.org/). The "SMI-Jobs" link in the left-hand menu can be opened to view current job offers. These are free to view, however you must be logged-in to mipsoc.org in order to post a new vacancy.  Postings are moderated to avoid spam being posted to the website, but moderation is usually handled quickly and results in an e-mail alert being sent to the SMI membership alerting them to the post. Registration on mipsoc.org is free: https://mipsoc.org/SMI/register.php. Don't forget to update your profile and add a group description.  Mike

How about a mipdatabase.com branded mug or T-shirt?

Hi Mippers!

Be the coolest dude in the lab with one of my mipdatabase.com T-shirts. Or how about drinking coffee or tea from a mipdatabase.com mug? Get yourself down to the mipdatabase.com merchandise store and start shopping. Come back often for new designs. T-shirts can be configued with a range of mens, womens and kids styles, sizes and colours, you don't have to stick with the default option. You can pay in many local currencies or with PayPal and items are printed to order. Happy shopping!

New features at mipdatabase.com

I have been quite busy this week however and there is quite a lot that's new!

The first thing you will notice is a Google custom site search box at the bottom of the front page. (Try it here) Try running a few searches, hopefully in a day or two Google will have mapped the website more fully and you can get truly focussed search results. I realised that the existing year and author indexes were not necessarily the best things to get from a search, as you still had to scroll down, or use Ctr-F to find the search term on the page you were viewing. To get around that, each item in the database now has its own individual file entry. Once these start to come up in the results of a search, you will be able to go directly to an individual reference - still with the links to the full text articles, where available, that you have come to expect from mipdatabase.com. Not only that, but the authors of each article and patent are now linked back to their position in the Author and Inventor indexes, so you can see with a click what they have been publishing. Not only that, but the publication date is also clickable, taking you to the individual year indexes as well. Have fun clicking the much more interconnected mipdatabase.com!

I have also recently started this Blogger website where I invite you to sign up and participate. The address is: mipdatabase.blogspot.com come and check it out. If you have a Google account, write to me with some proof of your connection to MIPs research and I will nominate your e-mail address to allow you to post your own threads and reply to others. Happy blogging!
