Bernatowicz was educated at Washington University in St. Louis and Edinboro University of Pennsylvania.[4]
Bernatowicz was recognized for his measurements of the double beta decay of 128Te and 130Te, and consequential limits of < 1.5 ev on the Majorana mass of the neutrino. He also has contributed to the discovery and laboratory study of ancient stardust, providing new insights into grain growth in stellar outflows.
