Office of Science Strategic Plan20 –Year Goals

ITER for Fusion Energy: Provide the enduring solution to our Nation’s energy challenge, conducting the burning plasma experiment that will bring fusion energy within reach as a commercial source of clean, abundant energy.

Scientific Discovery through Advanced Scientific Computing: Expand the broad frontiers of scientific discovery through the power of advanced computation.

Nanoscale Science for New Materials and Processes: Master the ability to construct revolutionary new materials and processes…atom-by-atom and build upon Nature’s self-assembling techniques.

Taming the Microbial World—the Next Revolution in Genomics: Harness microbial genomes and the molecular machines of life for energy, the environment, and human health.

Dark Energy and the Search for the Genesis: Illuminate the basic forces of creation and the origins of matter, energy, space, and time.

Nuclear Matter at the Extremes: Explore new forms of nuclear matter at high-energy densities and at the extreme limits of stability.

Facilities for the Future of Science: Deliver the high-priority facilities over the next 20 years that support DOE’s and the Nation’s research.

“Laboratories for the Future of Science”

SC is developing a document highlighting the unique role and importance of the DOE Office of Science (SC) Laboratories to the future of science. 

It will sketch the future of each laboratory and outline some of the major challenges that the laboratory complex faces. 

The document will reflect DOE's vision for the future of the SC laboratories.

Due this Fall.
