Record of past volcanic eruptions — and potential hazards to health — revealed by low water levels at dwindling local tap source.

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, 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.

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.

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.

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.

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

An experimental drug to fight aggressive brain cancer has proved so successful in the first trial on humans that University of South Australia scientists will fast-track the second stage. The development provides a glimmer of hope for glioblastoma patients, who face a survival time of only 12 to 18 months after diagnosis.
