As the Lab continues to work in a hybrid environment, many are wondering how other groups are collaborating and working together. In fact, some teams at the Lab have been virtual, remote, or hybrid for many years, because they have to be to meet the needs of the science. The Energy Sciences Network (ESnet), the […]

When Security Agency Funding Complements Core DOE Research at the Lab
Many at the Lab are aware of the opportunities offered by the national security-related agencies, which include the Department of Defense (DoD), Department of Homeland Security (DHS), DOE’s NNSA, and the intelligence community. Funding offered by these agencies often complements funding from other, traditional sources, advancing core research programs at the Lab. John Valentine, head […]
Reminders from the Intellectual Property Office and Strategic Partnerships Office
Reminders from the Intellectual Property Office Invention and software disclosures. For IPO to have sufficient time to evaluate invention disclosures for commercial potential and patenting purposes, to fully assess software disclosures and clear such software with DOE for general release and licensing, investigators must disclose their inventions at least two months prior to the date […]
Inclusion in STEM: Lab leads transgender-inclusive name change initiative
In a sea change for scientific publishing, a project led by Berkeley Lab, in partnership with other leading institutions, has paved the way for researchers who change their names to retain recognition of their previously published work. The first-of-its-kind initiative launched this summer with all 17 national labs on board and 21 prominent publishing organizations, […]
Presenting the Bay Area National Lab’s Semiconductor Capabilities through LINC
The Lab Innovation Networking Center (LINC), established in 2020, is a collaboration initiative of four powerhouse DOE national laboratories in the Bay Area: Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, and Sandia National Laboratories. LINC’s goal: to accelerate industry connections and collaborations with the labs and to help improve products, […]
Learning from National Labs and Leaders through the Oppenheimer Science and Energy Leadership Program
Like many organizations, the DOE has a program to develop leaders. The Oppenheimer Science and Energy Leadership Program (OSELP) is the premier leadership development program of the DOE’s National Laboratory Directors’ Council (NLDC). Created by the NLDC in 2016, the program exposes emerging DOE leaders to the breadth, diversity, and complexity of the national labs […]
DOE Announces Early Career Research Program for FY2022
DOE is now accepting proposals for the Fiscal Year 2022 Office of Science Early Career Research Program (ECRP). This highly prestigious program supports early career researchers at DOE national laboratories with up to $2.5 million over five years to pursue their research. To be eligible for the competition at the Lab, a researcher must be […]
Ramamoorthy Ramesh and Maurice Garcia-Sciveres to Receive DOE Advanced Microelectronics Co-Design Research Funding
For the last few decades, society has enjoyed exponential gains in semiconductor performance, known as Moore’s Law. But this acceleration in computing power may be coming to an end, and further significant progress in semiconductor innovation requires fundamental research. The DOE has recognized that it is time to redesign the innovation process for the microelectronics […]
Picking Nobel Laureates’ Brains at the 2021 Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting
This last July, three Lab scientists rubbed virtual elbows with Nobel Laureates from around the world at this year’s Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting. Lindsay Bassman (CSA), Marlene Turner (PSA), and Michael Whitaker (EESA), participated in the event from June 27 to July 2, as part of a UC program. They came away with new knowledge […]
Berkeley Lab Collaboration Initiative with UC Davis and other UC Campuses Brings Researchers Together
When our work “with campus” is mentioned, most people think about our strong partnership with the University of California, Berkeley. Our relationship with UC Berkeley is extensive and deep, benefiting greatly from the campus’’s geographic proximity to the Lab and its role in the Lab’s founding and research over our 90 year history. It’s […]
