The awards will support Fermilab projects by leveraging AI to boost innovation and technology development, advance DOE’s Genesis Mission and accelerate scientific discovery.

Fermilab crews have successfully placed the first beamline component in the tunnel that will house the powerful new PIP-II linear accelerator, marking a major milestone for the lab’s future neutrino research program.

As Fermilab commemorates 70 years since the discovery of the neutrino at the Savannah River Site in the United States, the lab also celebrates its multiple generations of pioneering neutrino research. Today, Fermilab is building the next era of neutrino discovery through the development of the world-leading Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment.

Fermilab hosted the inaugural DUNE Data Analysis School, organized through the lab’s Neutrino Physics Center. The school brought together early-career researchers for intensive training in the software and analysis tools needed to perform physics analyses for the upcoming Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment. The program marks a major step in preparing the scientific workforce for DUNE and is expected to become a recurring training initiative.

The 10-year Legacy Survey of Space and Time has officially started, marking the beginning of a new era in astronomy and astrophysics.

Pandey’s term as co-spokesperson of NuSTEC will focus on advancing higher levels of precision for the next generation of neutrino experiments, including the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, an international collaboration hosted by Fermilab.

Currently, NOvA is Fermilab’s leading long-baseline neutrino experiment. Cremonesi is now co-leading the international collaboration of scientists behind it.

Christina Wang, a postdoctoral researcher and Lederman Fellow at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, has been awarded the American Physical Society’s 2026 Mitsuyoshi Tanaka Award in Experimental Particle Physics for her pioneering work in particle detection. Her innovative techniques, which open new pathways for identifying elusive dark matter candidates, are advancing the search for physics beyond the Standard Model.

The U.S. Department of Energy’s Genesis Mission is building a new era of AI-driven scientific discovery — and it requires far more than powerful supercomputers to succeed. To support this national effort, Fermilab’s Fermi Data Platform is providing secure, large-scale data infrastructure needed to make advanced AI research possible across the American Science Cloud.
