A
$17 million National Science Foundation grant
to develop laser technologies that will help create
the world’s smallest, most powerful computer
circuits will bring together scientists from Berkeley
Lab, the University of Colorado at Boulder, and
Colorado State University. The collaboration,
headquartered at Colorado State’s Engineering
Research Center (ERC) for Extreme Ultraviolet
Science and Technology, was announced last week
with Berkeley Lab’s David Attwood
and Erik Anderson among the principal
investigators. Full

Research Work
leading to the Nobel Prize for Chemistry for “discoveries
concerning channels in cell membranes” was supported
with research done here by members of Bing Jap’s
Life Sciences group, which solved the structure of the
AQP1 protein. In fact, Lab researcher Haixen Sui
is cited in the advanced information prepared by the
Nobel Foundation. Go here
to read these documents. Go here

UC
Releases
Investing Details
By
Matt Marshall
The
University of California has released some information
on the financial returns of its private investments
for retirees, and it points to a slightly sub-par performance.
But UC continues to withhold some important information
on the investments, despite a state Supreme Court decision
last week that forced the university to release such
information. Full
story.
