Science will play a growing role in what we eat and drink. As accelerating climate change creates growing challenges to our crops and livestock, we believe that advances in the sciences can deliver the tools to help us weather what is to come and reverse some of the damage already done. This is especially true in the growing and making of our foods.

Berkeley Yeast was founded on the belief that science—when done well and with integrity—can help us create safe, sustainable, and scalable solutions. Here we offer a series of short lessons to help you better understand the science behind what we do at Berkeley Yeast.
