Did you know fungi naturally produce all the ingredients needed for a cruelty-free meat substitute? Our scientists are exploring how tuning the genomes of mushrooms and molds can transform these food sources into gourmet, nutrient-packed meals made with minimal processing and a light environmental footprint.
High-temperature superconductor magnets have the potential to lower the costs of operating particle accelerators and enable powerful new technologies like fusion reactors. But quenches – the sudden, destructive events wherein a part of the material loses superconductivity – are a major barrier to their deployment. Berkeley Lab scientists have developed an approach to prevent quenches altogether, rather than simply trying to manage them after they occur.
La serie de videos “Ciencia en Movimiento” se enfoca en métodos, tecnologías y soluciones que Berkeley Lab está implementando para resolver desafíos complejos para la ciencia, las personas y el planeta.
