Experience the Present: Earth and Environmental Sciences
Scientists in the Earth & Environmental Sciences Area (EESA) are tackling some of the most pressing challenges of our time in order to enable sustainable stewardship and judicious use of the Earth’s resources. Associate Lab Director Susan Hubbard discusses the Area’s mission and priorities. https://sites.google.com/lbl.gov/the-next-90/experience-the-present/earth-and-environmental-sciences
Celebrate the Past: Earth and Environmental Sciences
Since the 1970s, earth and environmental scientists at Berkeley Lab have conducted basic and applied earth science research that has advanced environmental sustainability and energy security. View some of the highlights. https://photostories.lbl.gov/eesa?source=share-berkeleylab
Imagine the Future: Information Technology
Jacqueline (Jackie) Scoggins, a High Performance Systems Engineer in the Information Technology Division, started at NASA before coming to Berkeley Lab in 1996. She sees staying ahead of growing data and computing needs as the key to supporting future research. https://sites.google.com/lbl.gov/the-next-90/imagine-the-future/information-technology
Experience the Present: Information Technology
The Information Technology (IT) Division is a critical part of Berkeley Lab’s infrastructure and mission success. Interim CIO Adam Stone shares the vast scope of his division and how IT acts as a key partner in scientific discovery. https://sites.google.com/lbl.gov/the-next-90/experience-the-present/information-technology
90th Anniversary Talk on Lab Tools That Enable Science
The next presentation of the 90th Anniversary Speaker Series — taking place Friday at noon — will highlight the Lab’s state-of-the-art facilities and how they are advancing fundamental science, driving innovation, and improving the world we live in.

Celebrate the Past: Information Technology
The Information Technology (IT) Division is fairly new as a division, but IT professionals have supported Berkeley Lab’s science and operations from the beginning. https://berkeleylab.exposure.co/celebrate-the-past-information-technology?source=share-berkeleylab
Celebrate the Past: Sports
The Lab’s hilly terrain makes practicing for many sports difficult, but the Lab did consistently field a Frisbee team. In the 1960s, it was baseball and basketball. And what would the Lab be without its annual Runaround? https://berkeleylab.exposure.co/celebrate-the-past-sports
