He described his research process in his autobiography, Following the Trail of Light: A Scientific Odyssey Professor Calvin with algae slants, the Old Radiation Laboratory. Lawrence to Calvin: " do something useful " In the fall of 1945, Ernest O. Lawrence, Director of the Radiation Laboratory at Berkeley, suggested to Calvin that "now is the time to do something useful with radioactive carbon," the isotope which had been discovered in 1940 in the 60 inch cyclotron at Berkeley. On February 4, 1946 Calvin submitted to Lawrence an outline of the proposed research for the interdisciplinary Bio-Organic Chemistry Group. New use for an historic lab The Old Radiation Lab The Old Radiation Lab, a decrepit wooden structure which once housed Lawrence’s 37 inch cyclotron, was assigned to Calvin for research on photosynthesis. The room where the cyclotron had been installed was a large open space without internal walls. This "open laboratory" promoted interaction between the scientists of diverse disciplines who worked in an atmosphere of free discussion and scientific cooperation. It was a physical setting perfectly suited to the "new biology" incorporating, as it did, scientists from diverse disciplines who had much to gain from steady interaction, discussion, and cooperation. The success it wrought led directly to the innovative design of Calvin’s subsequent Laboratory of Chemical Biodynamics.

Calvin, Melvin [Figure] (b. April 8, 1911, St. Paul, Minn., U.S.d. Jan. 8, 1997, Berkeley, Calif.), American biochemist who received the 1961 Nobel Prize for Chemistry for his discovery of the chemical pathways of photosynthesis. After graduating from the Michigan College of Mining and Technology (B.S., 1931) and the University of Minnesota (Ph.D., 1935), Calvin spent two years as a fellow of the Rockefeller Foundation at the University of Manchester, England. In 1937 he joined the faculty of the University of California at Berkeley, where in 1946 he became director of the bioorganic chemistry group at the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory; in 1971 he became university professor of chemistry. Calvin began his work on photosynthesis in the mid-1940s. For his studies he developed a system of using the radioactive isotope carbon-14 as a tracer element in the green alga Chlorella. By arresting the plant's growth at various stages and measuring the tiny amounts of radioactive compounds present, Calvin was able to identify most of the reactions involved in the intermediate steps of photosynthesis. His research also included work in radiation chemistry, the biochemistry of learning, processes leading to the origin of life, and using plant oils as a petroleum substitute.

Calvin began work on photosynthesis 1949, studying how carbon dioxide and water combine to form carbohydrates such as sugar and starch in a single-celled green alga, Chlorella. He showed that there is in fact a cycle of reactions (now called the Calvin cycle) involving an enzyme as a catalyst
