Forging a World-Class Future for the National Laboratories

摘要

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) produces an incredible array of products and services vital to this country. It provides a secure and reliable nuclear stockpile and methods for the cleanup and decommissioning of nuclear facilities. It develops research and technology that enhance our long-term energy supplies, protect the environment, and stimulate industry. The 20,000 scientists and engineers at DOE's laboratories have generated dozens of Nobel prizes, numerous commercial technologies, and discoveries in areas as diverse as atmospheric science and the human genome.
