LLNL
An analytical technique – known as Droplet™ Digital Polymerase Chain Reaction (ddPCR) – that was developed by LLNL scientists and engineers, has garnered an Impact Award from the Federal Laboratory Consortium. The technology has been commercialized by Bio-Rad Laboratories.
Researchers from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and their colleagues who help them commercialize technologies have won three national technology transfer awards this year.
The trio of awards, from the Federal Laboratory Consortium (FLC), represent the most national awards that LLNL has ever won in one year’s competition over the past 36 years.
Two of the awards will be given for technologies to assist in the fight against COVID-19. One employs polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology to diagnose the SARS-CoV-2 virus (the virus associated with COVID-19) and the other is a mechanical ventilator easily built from readily available parts to assist those suffering from Acute Respiratory
eating pastries. the big issue, the state department has to affirmatively make a finding of national interests. green late to. say it s okay. can you do this, and the state department has a process that they re managing about whether they re going to decide if it s okay to do that and what we have found from four-year requests has people in the state department, particularly the embassy in canada are e-mailing back and forth with a lobbyist for the company that wants to build the pipeline who also used to be a hillary clinton campaign official basically saying, go do it, get on it. phil paul. right. here s a question. isn t this the other side of tim s indictment? if you take the invichlt seriously and don t say let s not play favorites, isn t this the problem with the mix of government in business? listen, if the concern is cronyism and that sort of thing and certainly given the threat to the planet from this particular pipeline, all that should be above reproach. i think the fa
occupy wall street movement. on september 16th, a few hundred people came to a tiny square in downtown manhattan with a promise to occupy wall street. we sent a producer and got mostly footage by a few dozen sleeping bags. by last week, the ranks of those participating in the event had swelled to around 1,000. the movement spread to boston, los angeles, washington, d.c., sfrae san francisco and chicago. this past week, thousands of union members and allies and others came out to join with the occupiers and the movement or protest or happening or whatever the heck it is has now spread to over 60 cities in the country, from seattle, to memphis to wichita, kansas. if not the whole world, at least the whole country is watching. they are planning an international day of solidarity for october 15th. i ve been spending time downtown and talking to a lot of folks about it who are not downtown. they all seem to have the same questions. what does it mean? what do they want? where is
