Basic Energy Sciences
October 11-13, 11 13, 2005

The Basic Energy Sciences Program …
… is one of the Nation's largest sponsors of basic research.
… supports research in more than 150 academic institutions
and 13 DOE laboratories.
… supports world-class scientific user facilities.
… is uniquely responsible in the Federal government for
supporting research in materials sciences, chemistry,
geosciences, and aspects of biosciences related to energy
resources, production, conversion, efficiency, and use – all in
an environmentally conscientious manner.
