DOE’s Office of Science Is Now Accepting Applications for Spring 2026 Undergraduate Internships

July 9, 2025 by Garren Weiss

Students will conduct scientific and technical projects at national laboratories

The Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Science is now accepting applications for the Spring 2026 term for two undergraduate internship programs: the Science Undergraduate Laboratory Internships (SULI) program and the Community College Internships (CCI) program. The application deadline is October 1, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. EDT.

Through SULI and CCI, undergraduate students and recent graduates delve into science and technology careers at the DOE national laboratories. They gain new knowledge, skills, and professional experience to further their educational and career goals. Interns work directly with national laboratory scientists, engineers, and technical professionals. They assist these experts with science or technology projects that support the DOE mission, including new frontiers in artificial intelligence, quantum, nuclear energy and technology, critical minerals and materials, and fusion science and engineering.

SULI is open to full-time undergraduate students attending 4-year institutions and community colleges or recent graduates within two years of receiving their bachelor’s degree or associate degree. CCI is dedicated to supporting community college students. Both programs are stipend-based and offered three times annually in Fall, Spring, and Summer terms.

Two workshops are planned to introduce each program, including the application process and strategies for submitting a compliant application. 

  • August 6, 2025, from 2:00 – 3:00 p.m. EDT for CCI – Register on the CCI website
  • August 14, 2025, from 2:00 – 3:00 p.m. EDT for SULI – Register on the SULI website

In addition to the workshops, the program office invites applicants and letter of recommendation writers to attend office hours. At these times, DOE staff members will answer administrative questions such as those pertaining to uploading transcripts, submitting letters of recommendation, and general inquiries. Office hours are scheduled on September 4th, 11th, 18th, and 24th from 2:00 – 3:00 p.m. EDT. Registration (on the CCI and SULI webpages) is required for attendance. SULI and CCI are managed by the Office of Workforce Development for Teachers and Scientists (WDTS) in the Office of Science.

Department of Energy Awards 38 Million Node-Hours of Computing Time to Support Cutting-Edge Research

July 8, 2025 by Garren Weiss

The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Science today announced that it will award over 38 million node-hours to 56 scientific projects under the Advanced Scientific Computing Research (ASCR) Leadership Computing Challenge (ALCC) program. The projects will use DOE supercomputers to solve problems that would otherwise be impossible using experimental approaches alone. The selected projects span many applications, ranging from advancing nuclear fusion to developing foundational models for AI.

The ALCC allocates researchers time on DOE’s world-leading supercomputers to advance U.S. leadership in science and technology simulations. Because these facilities are unique, receiving computation time on these machines is highly competitive. The 2025 allocations provide time on supercomputers such as Frontier at Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility (OLCF), Aurora and Polaris at Argonne Leadership Computing Facility (ALCF) and Perlmutter at the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC). These resources represent some of the fastest computers in the world. Frontier ranks #2 and Aurora ranks #3 on the Top500 global list of most powerful computers. These resources are capable of calculating over a billion-billion calculations per second, which is the equivalent of every person on Earth doing one arithmetic calculation per second non-stop for four years, and will allow researchers to make discoveries and scientific breakthroughs far beyond those possible with traditional computers. 

“Department of Energy supercomputers provide the cutting-edge computational capabilities that advance U.S. scientific leadership. Our supercomputers enable the exploration of complex scientific problems and the development of new AI applications that speed the time to discovery,” said Ceren Susut, the Associate Director of DOE’s Advanced Scientific Computing Research program. “The ALCC awards are just one example of how the DOE’s investments in supercomputing benefit researchers all across our nation to advance our nation’s scientific competitiveness.”

ALCC focuses on projects with an emphasis on high-risk, high-payoff projects in areas relevant to the DOE mission or that broaden the community of researchers who use DOE’s advanced computing resources. For the 2025 awards, DOE selected projects based at 14 unique universities, 10 laboratories, and 8 industry partners.

These projects span a wide range of research areas addressing national challenges, such as: 

  • Energy: The development of AI and deep learning prediction tools for fusion energy systems, the modeling of materials for energy storage, and the design of new semiconductors. 
  • Medicine: The development of deep learning for medical applications, the modeling of cancer screening strategies, and the development of AI for cancer image processing.
  • Computational fluid dynamics: Simulations to enable optimized designs for next-generation turbomachinery with the potential to save airlines 130 million gallons of jet fuel annually.

Learn more about the 2025 ALCC awardees by visiting the ASCR website. The ALCC application period will re-open for the 2026-27 allocation cycle in Fall 2025.

Annual workshop brings together signal and image science community

June 23, 2025 by Garren Weiss

On May 21 and 22, signal and image science experts from across LLNL, academia and industry gathered at the UC Livermore Collaboration Center (UCLCC) for the 29th annual Center for Advanced Signal and Image Sciences (CASIS) workshop. One of the longest-running events of its kind at the Lab, the CASIS workshop connects the signal and image sciences community to share research and resources, network and spark collaborations.

Signal and image sciences are a diverse and interdisciplinary field dedicated to processing, generating, analyzing and interpreting signals and images. This field is integral to the Lab’s key missions through activities like extracting data from National Ignition Facility (NIF) experiments, enhancing remote sensing capabilities for security applications, developing robust AI platforms for mission-critical decision-making and enabling quantum-computing systems.

“Given the breadth of applications, CASIS is uniquely positioned to provide a window into the Lab and showcase a large number of research areas,” said Ruben Glatt, CASIS director and AI Research Group leader in the Computational Engineering Division. “The workshop makes the Lab more approachable to the broader research community by helping identify overlapping interests and opportunities for collaboration.”

LLNL, University of California host second-annual ALS workshop

June 10, 2025 by Garren Weiss

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive and fatal neurodegenerative disease. While there is currently no cure, efforts are underway to change that — and to establish better treatments.

Scientists at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and the University of California (UC) system are addressing ALS challenges and opportunities at scale by collaborating across disciplines to accelerate research and development. Toward this end, the UC Livermore Collaboration Center hosted the second annual UC ALS Workshop on May 15–16.
