Employees
Invited To ‘Neighbors’ Event
Berkeley
Lab employees, especially those who live in neighborhoods
surrounding the lab, are invited to attend Thursday’s
community conversation about laboratory programs at the
Strawberry Canyon Recreation Area’s Haas Clubhouse.
After initial comments by Lab Director Charles Shank
and Berkeley Mayor Tom Bates, Lab staff will host information
tables describing scientific initiatives, land management
programs, and science education activities. The 7:30 to
9:30 p.m. event will also feature light refreshments.
Wheelchair-accessible buses will run shuttle service from
7:15 to 9:30 between the Berkeley BART station and the
Clubhouse. |

Lanzara, an investigator in Berkeley Lab’s
Materials Sciences
Division, has been selected to receive the 2003 William
L. McMillan Award for "outstanding contributions
in condensed matter physics." The award honors
the memory of a noted physicist at the University of
Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where the $1,000 prize
is given. The McMillan award is presented annually to
a condensed matter physicist for distinguished research
performed within five years of receiving the Ph.D. degree. |

PNNL Director
Looks for Berkeley Ties
The
new Director of Pacific Northwest National Laboratory,
Len Peters, spent Monday meeting with Berkeley Lab officials
and observing programs here and at the Joint Genome
Institute. His first visit to the Lab highlighted current
and potential partnerships between the two institutions.
Peters, former research vice provost at Virginia Tech,
toured the Advanced Light Source and the JGI and met
with leaders of computing sciences and energy efficiency
programs. |

Grant Proposal
System Launches Today
The Sponsored Projects Office (SPO) launches the Research
Administration Proposal Information Database (RAPID)
today. RAPID replaces a 15-year-old system and is the
Laboratory’s implementation of PeopleSoft’s
Grants Management. It covers the administrative aspects
of creating and managing non-DOE research proposals
along with award authorization, project creation, and
post-award administrative management. Full
story. |
