When Akshata and Anagha Tiwari, two sisters studying at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, attended a STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) research symposium at the university in 2022, they already had firsthand experience with the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory. In high school, both attended Argonne’s Big Data Camp – a workshop where high school juniors and seniors apply real research data to develop the professional skills and perspective of data scientists.
Nuclear science and technology (NST) impact our daily lives in a myriad of ways. From nuclear power to radiation cancer treatments and agriculture protection, NST is critical to improving the standard of living in countries with growing energy requirements.
Yesterday marked the release of a highly anticipated report from the Particle Physics Project Prioritization Panel (P5), unveiling an exciting new roadmap for unlocking the secrets of the cosmos through particle physics.The report was released by the High Energy Physics Advisory Panel to the High Energy Physics program of the Office of Science of the U.
Soham Saha, a Maria Goeppert Mayer Fellow at Argonne National Laboratory, discusses his work to develop small, adjustable X-ray sources.
Mice typically live two years and monkeys live 25 years, but the brains of both appear to develop their synapses at the same time. This finding, published in a recent study led by neuroscientist Bobby Kasthuri of the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory and his colleagues at the University of Chicago, is a shock for neuroscientists.
A paper co-authored by Argonne Physicist Filip Kondev has earned a “Top Cited Paper Award” from IOP Publishing. The paper provides fundamental nuclear physics properties for all known nuclei and ranks in the top 1% in IOP’s Physics category since 2020.
Argonne and Idaho National Laboratories will collaborate with CMBlu Energy to validate its battery technology for strengthening microgrid resilience in cold climates and electric vehicle charging in underserved areas.
A future quantum network may become less of a stretch thanks to researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory, the University of Chicago and Cambridge University.
Argonne’s newest version of the AAE program takes a more focused approach centered on local communities, with the intent of distributing curricula that other organizations can use for their own science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education.
Research and development is an expensive undertaking for any company — which is why so many startups begin with a new patent, a brand new idea foundationally tested and ready to be scaled up.
Maria Goeppert Mayer Fellow Gordon Peterson talks about his work at Argonne National Laboratory researching a class of materials called thermoelectrics.
Sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) are making news as a way to potentially reduce the greenhouse gas emissions from the aviation industry. Now, the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory has teamed up with DOE’s Idaho National Laboratory on a new project funded by DOE’s Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) called BRIDGES: the Bioenergy Research & Education Bridge.
Innovators often point to failure as their inspiration for success. Tongchao Liu can relate.That’s because his groundbreaking research on why rechargeable lithium batteries eventually fail — and how to extend their life expectancy — has earned him a place on MIT Technology Review’s list of “35 Innovators Under 35” for 2023.
The National Academies of Sciences has awarded funding to Argonne National Laboratory and others to improve safety of offshore oil and gas operations in the Gulf of Mexico.
Chain Reaction Innovations (CRI), part of the Lab-Embedded Entrepreneurship Program at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory, has earned a 2023 Chicago Innovation Award.
Argonne National Laboratory to partner with minority-serving institutions to mentor students in artificial intelligence research as part of DOE’s effort to advance diversity in STEM.
Eight OQI undergraduate fellows recently completed quantum research experiences that contributed to R&D at the Q-NEXT quantum center. In this Q&A, they share what they did last summer.
For decades, the standard reference tool for ultraprecise timekeeping has been the atomic clock. Scientists have known that an even more precise and reliable timepiece was possible, but technical limitations kept it only a theoretical prospect.Now, researchers from the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory, Texas A&M University and several European institutions are turning theory into practice.
Started in 2016 by the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO), the Bioprocessing Separations Consortium (SEPCON) was established to address the challenges posed to bring biofuels to market faster and more efficiently. Separating biomass — organic material from plants, agricultural waste and wet waste, among others — is costly and uses a lot of energy.
This fall, when students visit a local STEM fest (a fair themed around science, technology, engineering and mathematics), if the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory has been invited to participate at that event, the students will discover that Argonne offers a fun activity to explore at STEM fests: hydropower.
Discovery of “cooperative” interactions among battery components points to an exciting new approach for designing batteries beyond lithium-ion.
The American Physical Society welcomed three new Fellows from Argonne — Dillon Fong, Katrin Heitmann and Ahren Jasper.
Kevin Brown, a Walter Massey Fellow at Argonne National Laboratory, talks about the fellowship and his career focused on optimizing supercomputers.
Argonne National Laboratory leads the Fast Reactor Program, which provides key support to industry in demonstrating clean, green advanced nuclear reactor technologies.
A new international consortium brings together teams of researchers to create trustworthy and reliable generative AI models to address critical scientific and engineering challenges.
STEM mapping provides communities a holistic view of community assets and collective strengths, including libraries, computer labs, makerspaces and instructional kitchens.
