Crafting climate solutions on a local scale

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

In its first year, Argonne’s Center for Climate Resilience and Decision Science (CCRDS) successfully partnered with public and private entities to create climate resiliency plans.

Argonne’s educational programs foster students’ STEM growth

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

Argonne’s educational programs and outreach offers a number of different avenues and opportunities for students to expand their STEM identities and begin to pursue STEM careers.

Victor M. Zavala: Then and Now / 2012 Early Career Award Winner

DOE/US Department of Energy

Victor M. Zavala, professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a computational mathematician in the Mathematics and Computer Science Division at Argonne National Laboratory, is developing scalable algorithms and software to handle the nation’s energy infrastructure challenges.

Gang Seob “GS” Jung: Solving scientific puzzles using computational models

DOE/Oak Ridge National Laboratory

Jung, a member of the Computing and Computational Sciences Directorate at ORNL, is using his fellowship to develop essential tools of multiscale models for universal materials. He is interested in modeling materials using computational science to help develop new technology for new materials.

BLIP celebrates 50th anniversary

DOE/Brookhaven National Laboratory

Fifty years ago, in 1972, the Brookhaven Linac Isotope Producer (BLIP) began operation. It was the world’s first facility to use high-energy particle beams to produce radioisotopes that are rare, new, or commercially unavailable. Since then, BLIP’s isotopes have been used for a variety of purposes—chief among them, the diagnosis and treatment of disease.

New report ensures hydropower sustainability amid climate change

DOE/Oak Ridge National Laboratory

The U.S. Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory has provided hydropower operators with new data to better prepare for extreme weather events and shifts in seasonal energy demands caused by climate change.

Atomic-scale imaging reveals a facile route to crystal formation

DOE/Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

New research from PNNL sheds light on how crystals form using atomic force microscopy.
