Argonne National Laboratory stands at the forefront of scientific discovery, recognized for its pioneering research and collaborative approach to solving real-world problems in energy, materials and technology. As a U.S. Department of Energy lab, Argonne is dedicated to advancing science that benefits society.

Traditional scientific discovery often moves slowly, with researchers limited by the need to conduct experiments one at a time. This hinders progress in developing new solutions that can improve everyday life.

In this video, Physical Sciences and Engineering Deputy Associate Director Ilke Arslan explains how Argonne’s autonomous discovery labs—powered by AI and robotics—enable scientists to run many experiments simultaneously, transforming research timelines from years to weeks or even hours. This leap in speed and independence is set to revolutionize science, helping us solve challenges faster than ever before.
