Fair winds and following seas to CAPT Andy “Big Tuna” Berner, ONR Assistant Chief of Naval Research, as he retires from the @USNavy.

CAPT Berner first joined our organization as Executive Officer of ONR Global before leading the command as Commanding Officer. As a leader of ONR and ONR Global, CAPT Berner helped advance new international research partnerships, strengthen relationships in support of U.S. naval interests, and advance the cutting-edge science and technology that underpins the future capabilities of the Fleet and Force.

We sincerely thank CAPT Berner for his exemplary Naval service, and wish him all the best in his next chapter. We’ll miss you, Big Tuna!

Last week, Program Officer Natalie Steinhauser hosted a portfolio review and science fair for her Prepared Warfighter portfolio researchers within ONR's Warfighter Performance Department at ONR HQ.

The science fair provided an opportunity for participants to showcase cutting-edge ONR-sponsored work, exchange ideas and engage with colleagues and stakeholders across disciplines. Researchers shared critical insights into their fields of study that support the warfighter, fielded questions from attendees and explored opportunities for collaboration.

Projects and topics on display included cognitive performance, training technologies, performance assessment and after-action review, and decision superiority, all highlighting the breadth of research underway to better understand and enhance warfighter performance and overall lethality and readiness of the fleet.

Through efforts like these, ONR continues to connect researchers, foster innovation and advance the leading-edge S&T that supports @usnavy and @USMC.

[OASIS - The Zappa Lab @TheZappaLab]

The Zappa Lab had a wonderful time at the 2026 Waves in the Sea Environment (WISE) conference in Venice, Italy, hosted by CNR-ISMAR @CnrIsmar this month. We shared our latest research, reconnected with colleagues, met new collaborators, and learned about exciting advances in ocean wave science.

Beyond the conference, we explored Venice’s history, enjoyed delicious local food, and even attended a concert at Chiesa dei Miracoli. A rewarding week of science, connection, and discovery. More highlights from WISE coming soon, stay tuned!

The research we presented at the WISE conference are supported by @USNavyResearch, @NSF, and @NASA
