BACKGROUND

Biology in the 21st century will be a quantitative and predictive science. We are now poised to return to the origins of scientific inquiry - natural philosophy - as the tools and concepts of physical science become applicable to the central concerns of biology. The mission of the Physical Biosciences Division is to provide the multidisciplinary intellectual backdrop and the physical resources to build the programs and tools that will make this vision a reality.

Berkeley Lab's Physical Biosciences Division hosts a 10-12 week research summer program that provides undergrad and graduate students the opportunity to gain research experience, working side-by-side with world class scientists and engineers.

Participants will have the opportunity to work on projects in energy production, synthetic biology, and computational & theoretical biology under the guidance of one or more staff members. Berkeley Lab is a world leader in biological, computing, physical, materials, chemical, and energy sciences research.
