Diversifying Argonne’s high performance computing workforce

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

Argonne is focused on building a more diverse workforce in high performance computing (HPC). Sustainable Research Pathways for HPC, an internship & mentoring program, connects students from underrepresented groups with scientists to jump start careers.

Argonne training program introduces AI for science to a new crowd

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

The Intro to AI-Driven Science on Supercomputers training series gives students hands-on experience using the Lab’s high performance computing resources.

Brookhaven Lab and Boys & Girls Club of Shinnecock Nation team up for DIY STEM program

DOE/Brookhaven National Laboratory

The DIY STEM program aims to make connections between scientific principles and real-world application. The Native Adaptation also features history, achievements, and current news related to STEM applications in Native culture to increase youth interest in activities and future career aspirations.

Changing process leads to purer Pm-147 — and more of it

DOE/Oak Ridge National Laboratory

With larger, purer shipments on a more frequent basis, Oak Ridge National Laboratory is moving closer to routine production of promethium-147.

Volker Rose: Then and now / 2012 Early Career Award winner

DOE/US Department of Energy

At Argonne’s Advanced Photon Source and its Center for Nanoscale Materials, physicist Volker Rose’s team built a one-of-a-kind microscope. They developed techniques to combine the chemical sensitivity of synchrotron X-rays with the high spatial resolution of scanning tunneling microscopy.

Experts discuss quantum science at screening of ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

Following the screening of the movie, leading experts in quantum science discussed the quantum realm in Marvel’s universe and in ours. Guests were also treated to a hands-on demo of the Quantum Casino, a fun, game-based introduction to quantum physics.

Internships help students create prototypes for career success

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

Argonne’s Rapid Prototyping Laboratory is a testing ground for new ideas and new careers in autonomous discovery. Undergraduate and graduate student interns are learning how to automate lab work using robotics and artificial intelligence.

Brookhaven HSRP and Spark Program alumni selected in 2023 Regeneron Science Talent Search

DOE/Brookhaven National Laboratory

Jack Shultz and Marc Nichitiu, two of this year’s Regeneron Science Talent Search scholars, were able to gain valuable research experience in two of the intensive educational programs offered at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory.

SLAC theorist Lance Dixon receives Galileo Galilei Medal

DOE/SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory

Lance Dixon, professor of particle physics and astrophysics at the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Stanford University, will receive the 2023 Galileo Galilei Medal for his contributions to theoretical physics. The award was announced by the Italian National Institute of Nuclear Physics (INFN) on Feb. 15 – the 459th birthday of Galileo.

Artificial intelligence reframes nuclear material studies

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

Nuclear energy provides a fifth of total U.S. electrical power and half of its clean electricity. With new results from one scientist’s study of computer vision at Argonne National Laboratory’s IVEM facility, it may do even more.
