Supporting Nuclear Deterrence
Supercomputers simulate nuclear weapons performance—scientists then experiment to refine and verify data—to assure effectiveness of our deterrent without nuclear testing.
Reducing Global Threats
From epidemics to terrorist attacks, cyber security sabotage to energy security, LANL has unique capabilities that focus on identifying, anticipating, and responding to emerging threats.
Fostering Energy Security
Protecting our energy infrastructure while developing clean, sustainable energy sources are key areas of research and technology to ensure a secure future.
Charlie McMillan, Director of Los Alamos National Laboratory, describes how the Lab provides leadership in science and technology.
