Classical computers “think” in binary bits, 0 or 1. Quantum computers use qubits that can be in multiple states simultaneously and so can handle much more info. Scientists Oak Ridge Lab demonstrated a device that combines several quantum capabilities in one chip: ornl.gov/news/ornl-enta…


Over the past 34 years, grads of U.S. Department of Energy's Computational Science Graduate Fellowship have become leaders in quantum computing, AI, and science & engineering for energy security. We're proud to announce the newest class of 30 fellows from 21 universities: energy.gov/science/articl…


On May 8, Oak Ridge Lab proudly welcomed DOE Office of Science Chief of Staff Christian Newton, along with Acting Director Harriet Kung for a tour of our state-of-the-art facilities. This was an exciting opportunity to showcase ORNL’s vital role in shaping the future of energy and innovation!✨



Our National Labs are drivers of discovery. Office of Science Chief of Staff Christian Newton recently visited Oak Ridge Lab, where he learned about the lab’s work on bioenergy, quantum computing, neutron sciences, and more. The Lab's tools and expertise enable groundbreaking research.


Superconducting materials transmit electricity perfectly. To make this possible, they need to be very cold or under very high pressure. Researchers SLAC found a way to stabilize promising superconducting materials at room pressure for the 1st time: www6.slac.stanford.edu/news/2025-02-0…


Are you ready for the greatest astronomical film ever made? Over a decade, the U.S. National Science Foundation-DOE (@Energy) Vera C. Rubin Observatory will produce the most detailed time-lapse view of the cosmos ever. Save the date on June 23 for the reveal of its first images: rubinobservatory.org/news/rubin-fir…


When I became Secretary of U.S. Department of Energy, I promised to visit all 17 of our National Labs, so today I am here SLAC! Our Labs are at the forefront of innovation here in the U.S. and the gemstone of our department—I can’t wait to learn more about what they’re working on.

U.S. Department of Energy Secretary Chris Wright Exploring the origins of our universe at @KIPAC! Secretary Chris Wright is seeing SLAC and @DOEScience’s role in #CapturingTheCosmos. The lab built the world’s largest digital camera for the NSF-DOE NSF-DOE Rubin Observatory and will jointly operate its 10-year astronomical survey of the sky.



“The work underway at SLAC exemplifies why America’s national labs continue to lead the world in science & innovation: from astrophysics, fusion energy research & ultrafast high energy X-rays, to AI-driven accelerator science & breakthroughs in microelectronics."-Secretary Chris Wright


We thank @Energy Secretary Chris Wright for visiting SLAC. “Through our strong partnership with the DOE & with Stanford University, we enable research and technology that benefit the nation & are uniquely achievable here”- SLAC Director John Sarrao Learn more: stanford.io/3FvCDfs

Small molecules - big impact! Better sensors for small molecules could improve how doctors calculate drug dosages & patients monitor their conditions. Using AI & Advanced Photon Source, scientists created a method to make protein sensors for small molecules: anl.gov/article/breaki…


I am thrilled to be visiting Berkeley Lab today and am inspired to see another one of U.S. Department of Energy’s National Labs and their tireless work to keep the U.S. the LEADER in innovation!

Today we welcome U.S. Department of Energy Secretary Chris Wright to our Lab to tour national research facilities and meet with scientists whose work supports American innovation.
