Sometimes scientific terms can be confusing. @ENERGY's "DOE Explains..." offers straightforward explanations of everything from Atmospheric Radiation to Ultrafast Science https://t.co/OdlOF8edRf
While Lyman Spitzer developed the idea for stellarators at Princeton University in 1951, it was decades before the tech caught up. Now, @PPPLab is collaborating with @TheaEnergy to develop stellarators that could bring us fusion energy in the future: https://t.co/fEaJ4TN6qS
What are the key milestones required to develop a quantum computing user facility?
The Quantum Information Science subcommittee of the Office of Science Advisory Committee is seeking input on a QIS roadmap. Register for a virtual town hall on June 12: https://t.co/xlUkoqp4mi
Radium-226, a strategic radioisotope for cutting-edge cancer therapies, is far more available than ever before.
@ENERGY, @PNNLab & @NIST have developed a way to recover and repurpose radiological waste materials into this important isotope. Learn more: https://t.co/wQGEU0j1iR
Water and ions flow easily through ion channels in living creatures. Scientists want to learn from and replicate these structures to help us improve catalysts, batteries, and more.
Shudipto Dishari @UNLincoln is developing these artificial ion channels: https://t.co/lcXuJJiXim
Congratulations to Katherine Yelick, the new director of the Office of Science's @BerkeleyLab!
She is a leading computer scientist with deep expertise in high-performance computing and artificial intelligence: https://t.co/W8lO5BLBja
Are you an expert in planning, developing, and implementing research programs and managing scientific user facilities?
@ENERGY's Office of Science Basic Energy Sciences program is looking for a division director of scientific user facilities: https://t.co/sENRjNnIJY
Quantum computers are likely to be much better than conventional ones at improving catalysts, understanding the building blocks of the universe, and choosing options from many possibilities.

Robotics and automation have the potential to reshape science by enabling consistent, replicable, and scalable workflows.
@ENERGY is inviting proposals for research portfolios focused on robotics and automation testbeds from National Lab led teams: https://t.co/MusZ3pDZ3Y
Catching breast cancer early leads to better outcomes for patients. Tools originally developed to study nuclear physics @JLab_News are making early detection easier with clearer images of tumors: https://t.co/rrWvyfHZNq
To tackle critical energy challenges, we must support the next generation of researchers.
@ENERGY has chosen 75 PhD students for the Office of Science Graduate Student Research Program. They will receive world-class training at our National Labs: https://t.co/0odBrf5rMT
When college and university faculty members team up with National Laboratories, everyone benefits. This summer, 93 faculty members from 69 U.S. academic institutions will collaborate with @ENERGY National Lab staff through the Visiting Faculty Program: https://t.co/p4SKX9pn6Q
Space and time might seem like distinct concepts in our everyday world.
But when dealing with objects traveling close to the speed of light, physicists must consider spacetime as a connected 4D fabric. Learn what spacetime is & why it's important @ENERGY:

Hands-on experience provides a strong foundation for a scientific career. This summer, 1,120 undergrads from 346 academic institutions will participate in @ENERGY's Science Undergraduate Laboratory Internships and Community College Internship program: https://t.co/p4SKX9pn6Q
For decades, physicists investigated why a measurement of the muon differed from what theory predicted. The Muon g-2 collaboration, hosted @Fermilab, resolved this deviation and earned the Breakthrough Prize for their work: https://t.co/7UADOCcoO6
Congratulations to the winners of the 2026 National Science Bowl!
Mission San Jose won the high school championship and William Diamond Middle School won the middle school championship. We appreciate the hard work and collaboration of all the competitors who participated!
Are you ready for the 2026 National Science Bowl Finals?
Four teams - down from 68 high school and 48 middle school regional winners - will emerge triumphant this weekend to compete in the finals on Monday. Find out who will win: https://t.co/W2PI0gKs0Z
The National Science Bowl prepares today’s STEM students to be the scientists and engineers of the future. Tune in to watch the showdown between the top two middle and high school teams on Monday, May 4: https://t.co/W2PI0gKs0Z
Dentists often use X-rays in their work, but dentist Fernando Luis Esteban Florez needed more powerful equipment to develop his idea for an antibacterial dental adhesive that could save patients $5 billion/year. Tools @ORNL helped him create his resin: https://t.co/XN3sxebhi4
In Rocky Mountain forests, conifers tower overhead. But researchers @jgi are studying more than the trees themselves. They examined the tiny communities living on their needles, gaining insights into how these microbes affect the ecosystem: https://t.co/Vv7lY5MaIx
