“We Are Argonne” tells the lab’s story through the eyes of our best storytellers: the diverse members of our world-class community of talent, our unsung heroes.

The brief videos in this ongoing series showcase our people and how they contribute to achieving the lab’s goals in scientific research; how they support the lab’s culture of excellence, collaboration, recognition, and reward; and how they exemplify the lab’s efforts to foster diversity, equity, and inclusion. As you’ll see, their commitment to supporting and carrying out our science mission comes shining through.

Accelerator operator Samantha Burtwistle revels in the opportunities she has to collaborate on many types of physics experiments in supporting the many researchers who come to Argonne to work on its national user facilities. She also muses on the transformation she is witnessing in the wider STEM workforce.
