@SLAClab Any word on if there’s going to be a SLAC Run for 2023? After 3 years without it would be really nice if SLAC started the SLAC Run again.

🎉Tomorrow our powerful light source, SSRL, turns 50 years young!

🧬Check out this quick vid on SSRL and Roger Kornberg & team, whose work on molecular biology led to a 2006 Nobel Prize.

Oh, how time flies when you are having fun and doing science.

"It's an opportunity for me to recognise that all the work that so many trainees from my lab have done over the past 25 years and to reflect on how fortunate I have been and share in the celebration with them."

– 2022 chemistry laureate @CarolynBertozzi on her #NobelPrize

[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

Carolyn Bertozzi – awarded the 2022 #NobelPrize in Chemistry – has taken click chemistry to a new dimension and started utilising it in living organisms. Her bioorthogonal reactions take place without disrupting the normal chemistry of the cell.

Just in!

First selfie from our 2022 #NobelPrize laureate in chemistry @CarolynBertozzi. Congratulations!

#tbt 🏁 50 years ago today lab employees ran the length of the 2-mile linear accelerator and back in the first annual SLAC run 🏃 .

🏃‍♂️Since then 48 races have taken place, the most recent in 2019🏃‍♀️. #SLACTurns60

[Tim J. Dunn @ExistentialChem]

@SLAClab Looking forward to when the SLAC run starts back up again. Are there any plans for a 2022 SLAC run this fall?

New footage captured by Berkeley Lab scientists reveals nanoparticle growth is directed not by difference in size, but by defects! “This is a huge milestone. We are rewriting textbook chemistry, and it’s very exciting!” -Senior Lab Scientist Haimei Zheng https://t.co/RvyUEZQLaW

Congratulations to the 17-2 #beamline @SLAClab @SSRLnews on getting the first light on the #EIGER and a big thanks for sharing the first image 😀
Many more photons (and images) will surely come, so keep an eye on to @Stone_SSRL & @ExistentialChem

[Kevin Stone @Stone_SSRL]

Exciting times at @SLAClab and @SSRLnews! Finally putting the first (heavily attenuated) synchrotron X-rays on the @DECTRIS_News Eiger 4M at beamline 17-2. Thanks to @ExistentialChem and Ross Arthur for letting me push the button to take this image.

[SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory @SLAClab]

SLAC researchers have demonstrated that they can use machine learning to optimize the performance of particle accelerators by teaching the algorithms the basic physics principles behind accelerator operations – no prior data needed. https://t.co/CAfJ4Q8Ja2

@pkennepohl @MollyJongFast It looks too nice for it to have been repurposed. 🙄

@eddsteel Nice. Röyksopp was a big part of my Iceland road trip mix. What Else Is There ?

[Stanford University @Stanford]

The #NobelPrize committee couldn't reach Paul Milgrom to share the news that he won, so his fellow winner and neighbor Robert Wilson knocked on his door in the middle of the night.

BREAKING NEWS:
The 2020 #NobelPrize in Chemistry has been awarded to Emmanuelle Charpentier and Jennifer A. Doudna “for the development of a method for genome editing.”
