Experts from Argonne and Fermilab helped moviegoers celebrate the science behind ​“The Marvels” with a movie screening and panel discussion at a local movie theater.

A former retail worker finds the confidence to pursue a career in STEM thanks to an internship program designed for students at small colleges.

The completion of cavern excavation almost a mile underground for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment now clears the path for preparation for the two neutrino detectors.

The Science Accelerating Girls’ Engagement in STEM program promotes diversity, equity and inclusion. The second annual SAGE camp at Fermilab provided women and gender minority students a hands-on opportunity to experience work and research. The next camp will take place in July.

Fermilab scientist Juan Estrada recently took his novel Skipper detector technology to students in the Department of Aerospace Engineering at U of I run a thermal vacuum test for the DarkNESS mission. The test successfully demonstrated the crucial thermal control capabilities required for the detector operation.

The U.S. Department of Energy has given the green light for the U.S.-funded portion of the upgrades to the CMS experiment at CERN. The massive overhaul will prepare the experiment for the high-luminosity era of particle collisions at the Large Hadron Collider.

The Fermilab hosted international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment experiment recently completed the excavation for the detector caverns located almost a mile underground. By the end of the decade, results from DUNE could illuminate why the Universe predominantly consists of matter.

Fermilab is contributing to research on newly developed detectors in PET scanners with the Polsky Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation at the University of Chicago. They are working together to design chip technology capable of producing an inexpensive, highly usable readout of scan data that has the potential to reduce radiation dose by a factor of 1,000.

The excavation of the caverns that will house the gigantic particle detectors of the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment in Lead, South Dakota is complete. Final outfitting of the colossal caverns will begin soon and make way for the start of the installation of the DUNE detectors later this year.
