It's easy enough to see why ORNL is looking forward to the coming decade and beyond.

Every year, the Web of Science Group announces its list of Highly Cited Researchers. This year's list includes nine scientists from ORNL.

ORNL’s world-class researchers get plenty of well-deserved attention, but the lab also owes its success to the people behind the scenes.

ORNL has been an important national resource for more than 75 years and provides leadership in supercomputing, nuclear and neutron science, advanced materials, manufacturing, isotope production, environmental science and many other fields.

The contributions of ORNL staff members in their communities range from donating to United Way and other nonprofits to volunteering for service and fundraising events with Team UT-Battelle, to—on occasion—even founding a nonprofit.

Uniquely powerful scientific instruments don’t sustain global leadership without a diverse research and technical staff from across disciplines, ready to solve the world’s most pressing challenges.
