(3/3)Dr. @LinseyMarr of @VTEngineering shared her research on aerosol transmission of viruses. While Dr. Marr was unable to attend the ceremony in-person, more information regarding her outstanding scientific contributions can be found here: youtube.com/watch?v=amp_D2…

(2/3)During presentations on their work, Dr. Sherry Yennello of @TAMUChemistry discussed her groundbreaking research on nuclear reactions using radioactive beams. She also highlighted her recent breakthrough in purifying Astatine-211, which could revolutionize medical treatments.

(1/3) @SURAorg was thrilled to honor Dr. Sherry Yennello of @TAMU and Dr. @LinseyMarr of @virginia_tech with the SURA Distinguished Scientist Awards at our 2023 Annual Membership Meeting! Learn more about this event on our LinkedIn: linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…

Exciting news! Scott Heefner joins @SURA as Chief Growth Officer, bringing expertise in critical infrastructure assets and leadership in energy, environment, water, and facilities. Welcome, Scott! sura.org/wp-content/upl…

SURA recognizes Dr. Linsey Marr and Dr. Sherry Yennello for their groundbreaking research in aerosol science and nuclear chemistry, respectively. Congratulations on the well-deserved Distinguished Scientist Awards! sura.org/sura-presents-…

#Congrats to Shreyas Balachandran, who has been chosen to receive the ICMC Cryogenic Materials Award for Excellence! Shreyas is being honored for his advances toward turning niobium metal alloys into #NextGen accelerator parts. bit.ly/3Wt71Lr

Jefferson Lab Science Education helped in supporting Newport News Public Schools & CNU at the STEM Community Day on Saturday, May 20. Science Education treated enthusiastic students, parents and teachers to electromagnets, Quark coloring books and other SWAG. #STEM

“Your greatest tool is your understanding of the concepts. External to that, you’re talking paper, pencil and a simple calculator,” says CEBAF Operability Manager Shawn Frierson. Learn how Shawn uses those concepts to keep CEBAF running smoothly. jlab.org/people/Shawn_F…

The experiment to measure the electron’s weak charge has gotten the greenlight! @energy has granted Critical Decision-3A: Approve Long Lead Procurements, which allows MOLLER to begin spending $9.14 million for purchase of critical items. #BigScience jlab.org/news/releases/…

“We’re proud to continue impactful programs and bring about new initiatives that not only enhance our scientific mission but also positively impact... the region,” said Jefferson Lab Director @SdhAtom on being named to the @InsideBusiness Power List. jlab.org/news/releases/…

Earlier this week, @DEIC_VA brought the #SPARK757 program to the lab, where they discussed advancing and supporting energy innovators. Attendees enjoyed a lab tour and were able pitch their clean energy ideas with a chance to win up to $8,500 in prize money.

As CHEP2023 wraps up, we wanted to share one last picture of attendees from this dynamic, informative and collaboration-building conference. Thank you all for attending and wishing you all safe travels home! #AI #DataScience #MachineLearning #HPC

Strange matter is true to its name - it only appears in extreme conditions like high energy particle collisions. Scientists @argonne & partners traced how strange matter forms in atoms based on data from an experiment @JLab_News, as covered in @sciam: scientificamerican.com/article/physic…

Welcome #Software & #Computing Workshop attendees! The workshop covers data analysis techniques used in lab experiments, as well as provides C++ essentials and computing fundamentals.

Today's the Day: We're welcoming Virginia's #CleanEnergy #startups, aspiring #entrepreneurs, and researchers to SPARK 757! These innovators are building products and services to bring about the clean energy transition. #CoVA #RVA #HRVA #NewportNews

What a throwback!

Happy #ThrowbackThursday! Here’s a look back to May of 1997, when the Free-Electron Laser Facility, or FEL, was under construction.

Here's a peek at the industrial side of science: As part of CEBAF's scheduled down period last week, a crew installed a section of particle accelerator, called a cryomodule. There are typically about 50 cryomodules installed in CEBAF at any one time! #WhereTheScienceHappens
