“Computers can be trained to look for certain things and make decisions about next experiments in that way, but no computer can think and analyze like a human.” — Argonne's Ilke Arslan Improvements in robotics, AI, and machine learning can speed up the rate of scientific discovery from years to days and Argonne is working to automate certain aspects of laboratory research. From robot-powered assemblies to AI-supervised experiments, Argonne is making experimentation faster and safer while at the

#HowISupportScience: Gina Mekler. At Argonne, innovation often intersects with history—sometimes in very challenging ways. Gina Mekler, Senior Health Physics Technician, plays a critical role in managing this intersection every day. Working in Nuclear Waste Management, she helps protect employees, the environment, and Argonne property by monitoring radiological areas and processing nuclear waste, including transuranic materials like plutonium and americium left from early nuclear research. | Arg
