Washington, DC Projects Office
The Division's activities in the Berkeley Lab's Washington, DC Projects Office support Division capabilities and effectiveness in providing high-quality technical research and policy analysis to the Department of Energy and to other governmental and nongovernmental sponsors.
The Projects Office works closely with Washington-based research sponsors to help Division researchers understand sponsors' needs and to design and conduct projects that best meet these needs. The Washington office provides an additional outlet for transmitting the results of LBL research and analyses to federal and nonfederal users. In addition, the office coordinates research, analysis, and technology-transfer activities with the Washington offices of other National Laboratories.
