✨ Shoutout to Berkeley Lab! ✨ Their dedication to fighting hunger is truly inspiring! 💙 From hosting a quarterly volunteer shift at our Concord warehouse to sponsoring key events like Nourish Gala and Empty Bowls, their support runs deep. Each December, they take it up a notch with their Winter Food Bank Challenge—a friendly competition where departments race to raise funds. This past challenge? They raised enough for 100,000+ meals! 🍽️👏 Because of their incredible impact, we were honored to present them with one of our first-ever Meal Maker Champion awards! 🏆✨ Thank you, Berkeley Lab, for being a powerhouse of generosity! 💙 #EndHunger #MealMakers #CommunityImpact

It was a "viral" 🦠 performance! Congrats Yumary on your incredible 3-minute talk and thank you for representing us and our Biosciences Area at Berkeley Lab in the 2025 @#NationalLabSLAM! 🦠🥼🙌🏽👩🏾🔬

A new study led by our researchers outlines a way to engineer pseudo-bonds in materials. Instead of forming chemical bonds, which is what makes epoxies and other composites so tough, the chains of molecules entangle in a way that is fully reversible. https://lnkd.in/gHArUPME

Sweet! Researchers have successfully sequenced sugarcane’s complex genetic code. This accurate genome will help researchers study disease resistance, compare plant species, and work toward better crops for #biofuels. Joint BioEnergy Institute Joint Genome Institute
