Brookhaven Science Associates
Brookhaven Science Associates (BSA) was established for the sole
purpose of managing and operating Brookhaven National Laboratory.
 Formed as a 50-50 partnership between
Battelle and
The Research Foundation of State University of New York (SUNY) on
behalf of Stony Brook
University (SBU), BSA is the legal entity
responsible for leading BNL successfully through the 21st century.
Both SBU and Battelle are strongly motivated to ensure Brookhaven's
success. Being Brookhaven's closest university neighbor, SBU is the
single largest user of BNL facilities; BNL facilities and scientific
staff are essential to the vitality of the university's intellectual
life and to the impact of many of its research programs.
A presence at Brookhaven enables Battelle to continue and advance its
founding purpose "science in service to humanity," and to enhance
the research partnership between Battelle and Brookhaven in major
programs ranging from global climate research to nanoscience.
BSA Board of Directors
BSA is governed by a 16-member Board of Directors: Five appointed by
the Research Foundation, five by Battelle, and one each from six of the nation's premier research universities:
Columbia
, Cornell, Harvard,
Massachusetts Institute of Technology,
Princeton,
and Yale.
The Board is responsible for:
-
Setting overall Laboratory policy
and direction (see Science & Technology
Steering Committee);
-
Conducting an annual review of overall
contract performance;
-
Conducting independent corporate self
assessments; and
-
Providing advice and assistance to
the Laboratory Director on significant scientific, technical,
or management issues.
 Carl Kohrt is the current
chair of the BSA board.
The BSA Board will be supported by several committees,
including the Scientific & Technology Steering Committee, which will
commission peer reviews of BNL's programs and scientific facilities, and
advise the Board on scientific direction, user facility operation, and
management and policy matters that directly affect the Laboratory's
science mission.
