Behind the Scenes: Lighting Research in the Spotlight





Johnson





	Rubinstein

"The future looks bright," Architectural Lighting magazine concludes in a special feature story on lighting research. The story focuses on two leading science centers for the field: Berkeley Lab's Lighting Research Group in Environmental Energy Technologies, and Rensselaer's (NY) Lighting Research Center. "Despite persistent funding concerns," they write, the two centers "continue to discover new and improved practices for the lighting industry." Among those speaking about Lab initiatives are Steve Johnson, Eleanor Lee, and Francis Rubinstein. Full story.

Help With Performance
Reviews is Available

The Berkeley Lab Institute is offering two types of consulting sessions for this year's annual Performance Review Process. Employees needing assistance with writing an effective Employee Accomplishment Worksheet can attend workshops tomorrow or Friday, June 23 (11 a.m. to noon in Perseverance Hall). Sessions for supervisors wanting help with drafting Performance Reviews (PRD) will be held June 23 and 26, and July 6, 11, 17, 25 and 31 in Bldg. 4-109 (various times). Sign up at the Employee Self Service website.
