Please join the Science and National Laboratory Caucus and the Center for Clean Energy Innovation for a breakfast briefing on the value of the Department of Energy (DOE) National Laboratory system in driving innovation and economic growth.

Since the 1940’s, the DOE National Laboratory system has been in the vanguard of America’s global innovation leadership. While their initial mission centered around the Manhattan Project, the Labs now conduct more than $12.5 billion in publicly funded research and development (R&D) on a wide range of national issues, including scientific discovery, high performance computing, energy innovation, manufacturing, and national security. In addition, the Labs collaborate with industry and universities, bringing its world-class capabilities to solve private sector and academic problems.
