Science Serving the Nation

About us

The U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science is the lead federal agency supporting fundamental scientific research for energy and the Nation’s largest supporter of basic research in the physical sciences. The Office of Science portfolio has two principal thrusts: direct support of scientific research and direct support of the development, construction, and operation of unique, open-access scientific user facilities. These activities have wide-reaching impact. The Office of Science supports research in all 50 States and the District of Columbia, at DOE laboratories and more than 300 universities and institutions of higher learning nationwide. The Office of Science User Facilities provide the Nation’s researchers with state-of-the-art capabilities that are unmatched anywhere in the world.

The teal and blue springs of Yellowstone National Park are the stuff of postcards. What tourists don’t see are the diverse communities of microscopic organisms below the surface. With boiling hot temperatures and sometimes very acidic conditions, these microbes live in some of the most extreme conditions on Earth. Scientists think that some of the earliest forms of life may have evolved in hot springs. Scientists from the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory cataloged microbes living in hot springs in Yellowstone, Iceland, and Japan. They found that the pH of spring water (the acidity level of a liquid) is the major driver of which microbes are in which springs. A better understanding of microbes in hot springs could provide insights into where we came from and set a foundation for where we could go in our understanding of the Earth around us. https://lnkd.in/eSgcZdPW

To study the universe's large-scale structure, you need unique tools. In his research at Argonne National Laboratory, Chanhyuk (Andy) Park at Carnegie Mellon University will be using the cosmic phenomenon of weak gravitational lensing as a tool. Studying this phenomenon helps researchers examine distortions caused by gravity and understand data from telescopes. Park's research will help astrophysicists interpret data from the upcoming survey at the NSF-DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory: https://lnkd.in/etpxvHCK

The Office of Science Graduate Student Research program is now open for applications. The program provides awards to U.S. graduate students to conduct part of their PhD research at a DOE national laboratory or facility. The goal of the program is to prepare graduate students for scientific and technical careers critically important to the mission of DOE’s Office of Science. https://lnkd.in/eFgmsppd

BREAKING ⚛️ Major fusion funding announced by U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) One of six selected projects includes a multidisciplinary, multi-institutional team that will address fusion fuel cycle challenges and integrate those solutions with the rest of a fusion power plant. Experts from INL will facilitate the use of unique advanced modeling and simulation resources for nuclear systems: MOOSE-based open-source codes and our Bitterroot, Sawtooth and Hoodoo supercomputers. We look forward to seeing new, innovative solutions from these awardees.
