Separate But Together: Ultrathin Membrane Both Isolates and Couples Living and Non-Living Catalysts
Bioelectrochemical systems combine the best of both worlds – microbial cells with inorganic materials – to make fuels and other energy-rich chemicals with unrivaled efficiency. Yet technical difficulties have kept them impractical anywhere but in a lab. Now researchers at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory have developed a novel nanoscale membrane that could address these issues and pave the way for commercial scale-up.
Faster, Cheaper, Better: A New Way to Synthesize DNA
In what could address a critical bottleneck in biology research, Berkeley Lab researchers announced they have pioneered a new way to synthesize DNA sequences through a creative use of enzymes that promises to be faster, cheaper, and more accurate.
Looking at cancer in a whole new way
UCI moves to the national forefront by taking an interdisciplinary systems biology approach to the devastating disease
New Machine Learning Approach Could Accelerate Bioengineering
New approach is faster than the current way to predict the behavior of pathways, and promises to speed up the development of biomolecules for many applications in addition to commercially viable biofuels, such as drugs that fight antibiotic-resistant infections and crops that withstand drought.

Living Large: Exploration of Diverse Bacteria Signals Big Advance for Gene Function Prediction
Scientists at Berkeley Lab, including researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Joint Genome Institute, have developed a workflow that enables large-scale, genome-wide assays of gene importance across many conditions. Their work is by far the largest functional genomics study of bacteria ever published.
