MIT alum and Energy Club member David Berry wins Technology Review's TR35 Innovator of the Year!

Congrats to MIT energy alum and active Energy Club member David Berry, currently a principal at Flagship Ventures, for being named Technology Review Magazine's "TR35 Innovator of the Year" in large part for his innovative scientific and entrepreneurial work in founding LS9, a Flagship-founded company using synthetic biology to coax organisms into making petroleum-like fuels.

Way to go David!

Wow! Go Dave B. That's great news and a testament to the power of biological approaches to energy (I never resist the opportunity for a self-plug).

David is indeed an impressive guy. On a fun note, he taught me that health care and energy are the two global "trillion dollar markets".

He's in both. :)
