America's national laboratories are launching an ambitious plan to double scientific productivity within a decade using artificial intelligence. Fermilab is leading multiple projects that could transform everything from particle physics to chip design.
America's particle physics lab is using decades of data expertise to fuel the Genesis Mission, a new AI-powered research platform that could cut discovery time from years to months. Researchers across the country can now tap into powerful storage systems to accelerate everything from battery development to fusion energy.
America's particle physics lab is powering the future of scientific discovery by providing massive data storage for the Genesis Mission's AI research. Fermilab's decades of managing enormous datasets now helps researchers across the country answer big questions faster.
A visual artist and composer will transform invisible particle physics into art the public can see and hear. Their 2026 residency at Fermilab proves science and creativity speak the same language.
A Virginia Tech team just won one of science's biggest honors for discovering hints that our understanding of the universe might be incomplete. Their decade-long experiment measured a tiny particle so precisely it revealed something beyond current physics.
After five decades of searching, physicists discovered the Higgs particle in 2012, proving that scientific breakthroughs require patience and intelligent failures. The journey involved three massive colliders and countless "null results" that ultimately pointed researchers in the right direction. #
Scientists can now ask complex research questions and get answers in hours instead of months, thanks to a new national AI system powered by Fermilab's massive data platform. The Genesis Mission could revolutionize everything from battery design to fusion energy research.
A Kolkata physicist won one of the world's largest science prizes for revolutionizing string theory, then donated much of it and pedaled his bicycle back to the lab. Ashoke Sen's groundbreaking work reshaped modern physics, but he chose simplicity over spotlight.
Scientists at CERN's Large Hadron Collider just found a particle that solves a puzzle from 2002, proving upgrades to the world's most powerful atom smasher are paying off. The discovery shows we can now detect particles that live for just a fraction of a trillionth of a second.
A shuttered Chicago steel mill that once employed tens of thousands is being transformed into a 128-acre quantum computing campus. The Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park represents the Midwest's bold reinvention as America's quantum future.
A husband and wife team from Kerala helped make the most precise measurement ever of a particle that could unlock mysteries of the early universe. Their work with 300 scientists just won them the "Oscars of Science" and a $3 million prize.
