The Berkeley Lab Postdoc Association is an organization run by and for about 1000 postdocs and early career scientists working at the Lawrence Berkeley National Lab. We organize many activities to strengthen our ties to the Lab, to each other and to the (Berkeley) Bay Area. Our goal is to facilitate social interactions, scientific exchanges, seminars and general orientation.
 
Tilden hike – August 2016

Tilden hike – August 2016

On August 14th, 2016, it was field trip for postdocs at Berkeley Lab, climbing up an extra mile to reach Tilden Park. They started at the Little Farm, for biology, then headed up to Wildcat Peak, for astronomical observations. Then they walked to inspiration point, to solve a few theoretical problems, and finally went down to lake Anza, to devise new computational approaches to Navier-Stokes equations based on simplified wave equations.
