Nathalie Elisabeth, a project scientist with the Molecular Biophysics and Integrated Bioimaging (MBIB) Division, has traveled worldwide for her academic and research career. She imagines how research can help the world transition from fossil fuels to clean energy. https://sites.google.com/lbl.gov/the-next-90/imagine-the-future/biosciences
The biological sciences have been part of the Lab’s DNA from almost the beginning. See how the Area has grown over the years. https://berkeleylab.exposure.co/celebrate-the-past-biosciences
Since 2008, the Women Scientists and Engineers Council (WSEC) has embarked on a number of initiatives to make the Lab a better place to work, particularly for families. Ina Reichel, WSEC chair, shares her vision for the council and organization. https://sites.google.com/lbl.gov/the-next-90/imagine-the-future/wsec
The policy, networking, and empowerment activities within the Women Scientists and Engineers Council (WSEC) contribute in many ways to Berkeley Lab’s mission. Susan Hubbard, WSEC Executive Co-Sponsor, discusses the group’s priorities and partnerships. https://sites.google.com/lbl.gov/the-next-90/experience-the-present/wsec
Since its founding in 2008, the Women Scientists and Engineers Council (WSEC) has worked with Berkeley Lab’s IDEA Office and Human Resources Division to empower women scientists and engineers and make the Lab a more family-friendly environment. https://berkeleylab.exposure.co/celebrate-the-pastnbspwomen-scientists-engineers-council?source=share-berkeleylab
From ambassadors to princesses to future vice presidents, Berkeley Lab has seen plenty of high profile visitors over the years. All were treated to the Lab’s cutting-edge research and celebrated scientists. Take a peek at some (but not all) of the notables over the years. https://berkeleylab.exposure.co/celebrate-the-past-visitors?source=share-berkeleylab
To celebrate Berkeley Lab’s nine decades of transforming discovery science into solutions that benefit the world, we’re rolling out 90 Berkeley Lab breakthroughs over the next several months. Check out the first set of 10. https://berkeleylabnext90.lbl.gov/celebrate-the-past/90-breakthroughs/
This new video series — created for the 90th anniversary — features early-career scientists describing their chosen research ambitions and what they hope to achieve in the future. In the first installment, Jennifer Pore explains how studying isotopes helps her learn more about the universe. https://berkeleylabnext90.lbl.gov/imagine-the-future/videos/
Will the Lab of the future be solving problems on other planets? Anthony Fernandez, the acting waste operations manager for the Lab, likes to imagine what the Lab would be like 90 years from now, including the problems researchers will tackle in 2111. https://sites.google.com/lbl.gov/the-next-90/imagine-the-future/environment-health-safety
Environment, Health and Safety is a division that touches every corner of the Lab. Safety is always first, but in the past year, health has taken center stage, focusing on COVID-19. Division Director Maria Nappi shares the present mission of the division while dealing with a pandemic. https://sites.google.com/lbl.gov/the-next-90/experience-the-present/environment-health-safety
