At the forefront of research and innovation
Participate in the second installment of the ANS Young Members Group Spotlight on National Labs series, featuring Argonne National Laboratory, on Thursday, April 30, 1:00 - 2:30 pm EDT.
 
Learn about Argonne's storied history and how the lab is supporting key nuclear energy and other initiatives of national and international significance. The webinar is free and open to all. Register now.
 
From the start, Argonne has been at the forefront of research and innovation. In 1946, as an outgrowth of the Manhattan Project at the University of Chicago, Argonne was established as a nuclear engineering, chemistry, and materials laboratory to develop peaceful uses for a revolutionary new source of energy: nuclear power. Today, nearly every commercial reactor in existence owes its development to seminal research conducted at Argonne.
 
Building on this heritage, Argonne continues its work to advance the safe and sustainable use of nuclear energy and to apply its nuclear technology expertise to current and emerging programs. Argonne supports key U.S. Department of Energy nuclear energy initiatives, including leading the nation's program for development and demonstration of fast reactor and fuel recycle technologies that promise to improve the affordability of nuclear power, enhancing the assurance of safety and security and minimizing the quantity of radioactive waste.
