Discoveries

Chemist Chu-Moyer, a member of the Advisory Board of the College of Chemistry, remembers wondering how medicines worked early in life.

Willard Libby (B.S. '31, Chem; Ph.D. '33, Chem) of Chicago University realized that the radioactivity generated by carbon-14 could be exploited to tremendous advantage.

Decades of research leads to self-contained solar panels that convert carbon dioxide into C2 products.

The DOE has awarded $115 million over five years to the Quantum Systems Accelerator (QSA), a new research center led by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) that will forge the technological solutions needed to harness quantum information science for discoveries that benefit the world.
