Eisen is 'Publisher

Eisen |

For biologist Michael Eisen, the ultimate test of his plan to radically change the future of science came down to convincing his skeptical younger brother to print a breakthrough paper in Michael's unproven research journal. It was the fall of 2003, and PLoS Biology was set to debut in a matter of weeks. This was the first journal from the nascent Public Library of Science, a nonprofit co-founded three years earlier by Eisen, a 37-year-old Berkeley Lab Genomics Division scientist. Full story.

Latest 'Science Review'
Features Lab Research
The latest edition of the student-produced magazine Science Review features research taking place here at the Lab and on campus. Stories highlighting work at the Lab include Phil Hugenholtz's work with microbial genomics, physical bioscientist Richard Mathies' search for extraterrestrial life on Mars, Paul Alivisatos' leadership of the Molecular Foundry, and earth scientist Inez Fung's modeling of global climate change. Copies of Berkeley Science Review are available in the cafeteria lobby, while supplies last.

On-Site Drivers:
Buckle Up, Avoid Cell Phone Use
State law requires that seat belts be used by anyone in a moving vehicle. This policy applies to driving at the Lab as well, whether in personal or government cars, say officials from the Environment, Health, and Safety Division. Drivers should also refrain from using cell phones, which can cause distraction and compromise safety while on the road.
