Advancing Global Sustainability Through Pioneering Research from the U.S. Department of Energy National Laboratories
Monday September 23, 2024 2:00pm - 4:00pm EDT
For nearly 80 years, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) National Laboratories have produced scientific and technological solutions to some of the most critical global challenges in energy, security, health, and the environment. The mission-focused multidisciplinary workforce and scientific infrastructure housed at the 17 national laboratories have successfully generated new ideas, innovative technologies, and world-leading research facilities and capabilities. Working together, DOE and its national laboratories can convene large multidisciplinary teams to focus on large-scale, complex challenges that often require years of focused effort to overcome.

The national laboratories serve as a critical bridge to academia and industry, forming national and global partnerships that have transformed science and technology. Facilities housed at the laboratories are also made available to researchers worldwide to power discoveries in virtually all scientific fields.

In this session, speakers from DOE and six national laboratories will delve into the latest research and innovation at the laboratories that align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, showcasing groundbreaking research advancements and scientific facilities that address urgent global challenges. Presentations will survey topics including next-generation X-ray light sources for scientific discovery, community partnerships to mitigate the effects of climate change and move toward a clean energy future, advanced sensing technologies for energy infrastructure, public-private partnerships in the fusion energy sector, and the latest collider accelerator technology and its societal benefits. The session aims to foster dialogue on how scientific innovation can be leveraged for sustainable development, emphasizing local-to-global collaboration and partnership.
