Using Advanced Equipment to Enhance Productivity
Our robotic liquid-handling equipment allows a single scientist to rapidly and reliably perform highly repetitive pipetting tasks, without introducing human error.
Using Sophisticated Data Acquisition and Analysis to Develop the Next Breakthrough
We use state-of-the-art imaging and analysis systems to measure the time-evolution of complex cellular phenomena at sub-cellular resolution.
A Culture of Collaboration
Every member of our R&D team, from Senior Scientist to Summer Intern, presents at our weekly team meetings.
An Open Lab Layout
The modern layout of our brightly lit and spacious lab facilitates focused work as well as collaboration.
A Space Without Boundaries
Large windows connect every room of our lab, as well as our conference room, administrative area, and kitchenette, allowing unobstructed views throughout our facility.
A Commitment to Education
One of the most rewarding activities that our full-time scientists have the opportunity to engage in is mentoring one of the participants in our year-round internship and co-op programs.
A Focus on Projects And Skills
The complexity of therapeutic-product development can lead some companies to create 'silos', in which a member of the "measurement group" receives samples from the "sample preparation group", and hands off data to the "data analysis group", only ever experiencing a narrow slice of the program. At Novellus we encourage every team member to have contact with and contribute to many areas of our work.
An Emphasis on Resources
We strive to immerse our scientists in an environment that contains all of the resources they need to be successful.
Promoting Leadership
At Novellus, roles are determined by achievement. Having a particular background or skill set will always be viewed as an asset, never a limitation.
The Importance of Reproducibility
We are committed to taking the time to ensure the reproducibility of our processes, and thus the consistency and reliability of our products.
A Culture of Immersion
Every new member of Novellus's scientific team goes through an intense training program before selecting their projects.
Teams within Teams
Nearly every result that we obtain has the potential to impact every one of our programs, making communication and collaboration essential.
A Focus on Flexibility
A large part of our work involves growing human cells in culture. Because our scientists often need to accommodate the cells' schedule, we strive to provide our scientists with as much flexibility in their work schedule as possible.
Structured For Success
Each of our programs is defined by objectives and milestones that are continually refined and adapted as we generate new data and results.
