Hydrogen has significant potential as an energy carrier and means of storing energy. Research on clean hydrogen has been a priority of the Department of Energy; two recent DOE awards will further support that work at the Lab. The DOE’s Energy Earthshot Research Center (EERC) program is funding the Lab’s Center for Ionomer-based Water Electrolysis […]

Revolutionizing Science with First-of-its-Kind Scientific Tools at the Lab
One of the important ways Berkeley Lab has revolutionized science is its development of first-of-its-kind scientific tools. These tools have often accelerated, and sometimes even changed the trajectory of science. The Lab of course got its start with E.O. Lawrence’s invention of the cyclotron, which accelerated scientific discovery at the sub-atomic level. Today, scientists around […]
The Joint Genome Institute Looks to the Future: A Q&A with Nigel Mouncey
Like Berkeley Lab’s other cutting edge user facilities, the Joint Genome Institute (JGI) is helping to transform science. When it was established 26 years ago, it focused on sequencing for the Human Genome Project. Since then, it has evolved to advance genomics in support of the DOE missions related to clean energy and the environment. […]
The Office of National and Homeland Security: Uncovering Opportunities for Berkeley Lab
The Office of National and Homeland Security (ONHS), first established at the Lab in the 1990s, transitioned from the Physical Sciences Area to the Lab Directorate in the fall of 2020, reporting to the Deputy Lab Director for Research. The transition was made to better support opportunities across the Lab with the nation’s security […]

Know Your Collaborators: The Importance of Restricted Party Screening and Your Role
In our mission to bring scientific solutions to the world, open collaborations play a vital role. At the same time, we also need to be mindful that an increasing number of institutions and individuals are subject to regulations. To safeguard national security and to prevent the unauthorized transfer of sensitive technologies and materials, Restricted Party […]
DOE Selects Five Berkeley Lab Projects for FAIR Awards
The Department of Energy Office of Science announced that five research projects involving Berkeley Lab researchers have been selected for awards through the Funding for Accelerated, Inclusive Research (FAIR) initiative, which aims to build research capacity at institutions historically underrepresented in the office’s portfolio. The awards will support basic research projects across the Office of […]
Lab Welcomes Summer Interns, In Person
