Have you ever struggled with poor video quality during remote meetings? You’re not alone! Many have found that lowering video quality and focusing on audio can enhance the experience. This concept parallels the technique of quantum squeezing. Researchers, like Stanford University’s Mark Kasevich at Q-NEXT, use this method to improve quantum sensor performance. By optimizing measurements in quantum systems, we can unlock new levels of accuracy.

A DOE lab, we deliver science and tech solutions to energy, climate change, environmental, and nat. security challenges.
About us
Argonne National Laboratory, one of the U.S. Department of Energy's national laboratories for science and engineering research, employs 3,400 employees, including 1,400 scientists and engineers, three-quarters of whom hold doctoral degrees. Argonne's annual operating budget of around $1 billion supports upwards of 200 research projects. Since 1990, Argonne has worked with more than 600 companies and numerous federal agencies and other organizations. Argonne's mission is to apply a unique mix of world-class science, engineering and user facilities to deliver innovative research and technologies. We create new knowledge that addresses the most important scientific and societal needs of our nation. We actively seek opportunities to work with industry to transfer our technologies to the marketplace through licensing, joint research and many other collaborative relationships. Argonne is managed by UChicago Argonne, LLC, for the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Science. We are located on 1,500 acres (6.9 sq. km) in southwest DuPage County, Illinois 25 miles (40 km) southwest of Chicago. The site is completely encircled by the beautiful Waterfall Glen Forest Preserve.

What: U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) National Laboratory Research SLAM When: Today at 3:30 pm Central Where: nlresearchslam.org Why: Vote for Argonne’s Bethany Dean-Kersten for People’s Choice! Yesterday, National Lab Research SLAM finalists from each of the 17 DOE Labs toured the U.S. Capitol and had the opportunity to share their research with Congressional members and met with U.S. Senator Ben Ray Luján and U.S. Representatives Chuck Fleischmann Bill Foster, and Zoe Lofgren. The SLAM is sponsored by the House Science & National Labs Caucus and the Senate National Labs Caucus—highlighting the groundbreaking research happening across our nation’s labs.

For decades, scientists have used imaging technologies like cryo-electron microscopy and X-ray crystallography to capture static snapshots of proteins. But to unlock their true function, we need to see them in action. Researchers from the University of Chicago, Harvard University, and Argonne have developed a groundbreaking technique that creates experimental movies of proteins in motion - https://lnkd.in/g8ddNnrM

Today’s jam session is coming to an end, but the work of revolutionizing science continues. The 1,000 Scientist AI Jam is a first step in broader collaboration between U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) scientists and commercial AI research labs to create better AI models for scientific reasoning and research. AI has the potential to dramatically accelerate the pace of scientific work, including background research, forming hypothesis, automating experiments, improving theory, assisting in computer code development and dozens of other tasks. The Jam explored the reaches of AI models and stretched scientists’ ideas on what is possible when they harness these powerful tools. OpenAI Anthropic #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #AIforScience

“Is it a conference?” “No. It’s a jam.” “Is it an event?” “No it’s a jam. It’s like a bunch of jazz musicians in a room riffing off each other.” - Rick Stevens, Associate Laboratory Director for Computing, Environment and Life Sciences at Argonne. Today, over a thousand scientists from across U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)'s national laboratories are working together to explore the capabilities of some of the most advanced AI models for science from OpenAI and Anthropic. This is the first 1,000 Scientist AI Jam with live simultaneous sessions happening in-person at Argonne, Berkeley Lab, Brookhaven National Laboratory, Idaho National Laboratory, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, and Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL). The AI Jam session provides a unique chance to contribute to the future development of AI reasoning models by inviting feedback on their use in real-world research challenges. #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #AIforScience
