The theorist is one of seven Stanford faculty members elected by the Academy this year, recognizing their exceptional contributions in their fields and professions.

Advanced imaging technique reveals catalyst degradation processes, addressing a key barrier to converting carbon dioxide into liquid fuel.

Developed at SSRL, the method could help make those electrochemical conversions more robust and efficient.

Wechsler is one of seven Stanford researchers to join the scholarly society, which works to promote science for public good.

Cryogenic electron microscopy showed for the first time that large RNA complexes can assemble without the help of proteins. 

In this Q&A, Arianna Gleason discusses the technologies needed to make commercialized fusion energy a reality and how SLAC is advancing this energy frontier. 

A look inside the data processing infrastructure built by the NSF–DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory to handle the Universe’s greatest data challenge.

21-26 September 2025 at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory

Rubin will observe more variable stars than ever before, enabling investigations into what drives their variation and mapping the outer limits of our galaxy.

Oxidizing chemicals break this cellular power plant into useless bits, leading to  Parkinson’s disease, ALS, heart disease, diabetes, cancer and more. A small molecule could block the process.

Using SLAC’s X-ray laser, the method revealed atomic motions in a simple catalyst, opening the door to study more complex molecules key to chemical processes in industry and nature.
