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.
