Part of the Community, Education, Government & Public Affairs Directorate, the Media & Communications Office provides information about Brookhaven National Laboratory to internal and external audiences through numerous communications vehicles. Our staff promotes Brookhaven’s international reputation as a center for scientific excellence and innovation. We also publicize information about Laboratory events, policies and procedures.
Media and Communications prepares all of the news releases on the Laboratory’s science discoveries, announcements, events, and awards. Releases from 1995 to the present are archived on this website and are searchable by keyword. Laboratory news releases are available in syndicated RSS format.
We publish the Laboratory’s weekly newspaper, The Bulletin; the biweekly web-based Monday Memo, which contains news from the Laboratory Director and administrators, and is e-mailed to the internal Lab community; Discover Brookhaven, a periodical magazine showcasing the Laboratory’s scientific research and discoveries; Take 5, a monthly video magazine; and various brochures and fact sheets. Brochures and fact sheets are available online.
Media and Communications provides photography, video, and graphic design for the Laboratory via the Production Services group. To place an order for these services, click here. We also maintain WBNL, which features selected Brookhaven videos available in a streaming media format.
Employees, users and the external community can receive the latest Brookhaven news, delivered to their computers via the BNL-ANNOUNCE mailing list. You may subscribe to this service online. See BNL-ANNOUNCE archives.
The Media & Communications Office offers four-month internships for undergraduate and graduate students interested in science writing and communication. You can find more information here.
