Hydrogen is hard and expensive to produce, but we have cleared a major hurdle to making green hydrogen more affordable. 🌱💧🔬
Producing hydrogen to fuel heavy transport and industry is energy intensive and expensive. A Berkeley chemist has overcome one roadblock to producing low-cost, green hydrogen from water and electricity.

Only 2% of people getting gel manicures protect against harmful UV rays. Our researchers have developed a spray that guards against UVA exposure during nail treatments. Innovations like these that remind us why we're a leading public research university. https://t.co/naDhRas5ps

From food waste to foodie wonder: Chef-turned-scientist Vayu Hill-Maini is using fungi to turn scraps into snacks. 1/3 of U.S. food goes to waste — and he’s tackling it with Neurospora intermedia, the same fungus Indonesians have long used to make oncom, a protein-packed dish.
Chef-turned-chemist Vayu Hill-Maini has a passion: to transform food waste into culinary delights using fungi. While studying in the lab of Jay Keasling, UC Berkeley professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering, Hill-Maini devoted himself to learning everything there is to
