Stakeholder Relations
We take great pride in being part of the Long Island community. We value the relationships that
we build together with our neighbors—relationships built by listening and speaking openly about the issues we all
care about. We know that the Laboratory's future as a world leader in science research depends on the trust and participation
of our neighbors.
Listening to You
The Community Advisory Council advises the Laboratory Director on issues that are important to the community. All meetings are open to the public. Learn more about the Council. Do you have an issue you'd like to raise, a question that you'd like to ask? Let us know!

Economic Impact
At a time when New York's state economy depends on its capacity for
innovation, Brookhaven Lab represents a uniquely valuable resource —
both as a major science-based enterprise in its own right, and as a
source of the scientific discovery and technological innovation on which
growth depends.

"The Quantum Universe"
Presented by Prof. Hitoshi Murayama, Univ. of California Berkeley and Kavli Institute, Univ. of Tokyo

Where do we come from? Science is making progress on this age-old question of humankind. The Universe was once much smaller than the size of an atom. Small things mattered in the small Universe, where quantum physics dominated the scene. To understand the way the Universe is today, we have to solve remaining major puzzles. The Higgs boson that was discovered recently is holding our body together from evaporating in a nanosecond. But we still do not know what exactly it is. The mysterious dark matter is holding the galaxy together, and we would not have been born without it. But nobody has seen it directly. And what is the very beginning of the Universe?
