Paul Alivisatos: Berkeley Lab director navigates uncertain times with a focus on research: Funding constraints have made the lab more efficient, and more focused on the fundamental mission that has led to 13 Nobel prizes
Abstract:
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory is a member of the national laboratory system supported by the U.S. Department of Energy through its Office of Science. It is managed by the University of California and is charged with conducting unclassified research across a wide range of scientific disciplines. Located on a 200-acre site in the hills above the UC Berkeley campus that offers spectacular views of the San Francisco Bay, Berkeley Lab employs approximately 4,200 scientists, engineers, support staff and students.
