Upcoming Events
Location: Building 201 (11091 Johns Hopkins Road, Laurel, Maryland 20723)
Atlantic Coastal Resilience Workshop → May 30, 2024 // 8 a.m. – 6:30 p.m.
APL will be hosting the Atlantic Coastal Resilience Workshop on May 30, 2024, with the goal of bringing together academia, industry, government, and nonprofits to forge a path forward in strategic development of coastal resilience in the Atlantic region. By building up our coastlines against the rapidly approaching, catastrophic effects of climate change, our coastal ecosystems, infrastructure, and communities will be able to “bounce back” from disruptive events, which is of emerging importance for dense cities, military bases and critical infrastructure, and essential ecosystem resources. In this workshop, we will hear from U.S. government agencies and experts in the field on the challenges and opportunities in the coastal resilience space, share emerging technical results, and discuss how we can apply our expertise to the challenges presented.
Locations: Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory, Laurel, MD (June 3-4) // Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, Washington, DC (June 5)
National Workshop on Marine eDNA → June 3-5, 2024
The biennial National Workshop on Marine Environmental DNA (eDNA) brings together researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to discuss eDNA technologies, newly released national strategies, and implementation priorities. In June 2024, we will convene to discuss four major subthemes:
- Strategic national priorities
- eDNA technology readiness to support decision-making
- Emerging technologies within the strategic framework
- Implementation and adoption: from research to resource management

Accelerating Materials Discovery for National Security Symposium → September 5, 2024 // 8 a.m. – 6 p.m.
APL will be hosting the Accelerating Materials Discovery for National Security Symposium on September 5, 2024, with the goal of bringing together government, leading materials experts and researchers, and innovators from a range of disciplines. These subject-matter experts will delve into identifying challenges and solutions addressing the pressing needs of extreme environments, such as space exploration, deep-sea exploration, hypersonic flight, resource-constrained scenarios, and harsh industrial applications. This event is only open to U.S. citizens. Registration opens in May.
Location: APL Kossiakoff Center
Analysis and Decision Advantage in an Era of Great Power Competition Conference (ADEC 2024) → September 17 and 18, 2024
ADEC 2024 is sponsored by APL’s National Security Analysis Department. This event has the potential to guide national security discussions and shape policy decisions for years to come.
This curated event will include technical talks, demos, and panel discussions in the following four tracks:
1. Tradecraft: This track focuses on innovative methodologies in artificial intelligence; machine learning and generative AI, including modeling and simulation techniques; and wargaming.
2. Understanding Adversaries: This track centers on the complexities of competition among great powers, especially the dynamics involving Russia, China, and the United States.
3. Net Analyses: This track includes comparative analysis of technical capabilities in emerging technologies among major global players.
4. Wartime Analysis: This track includes operational analysis and examines analytical imperatives in real-world operations, revisiting historical and current organizations for future lessons.
The Laboratory will also host a Special Session on Strategic Capabilities to discuss game-changing innovations.
Registration is now open.
APL Colloquium
The APL Colloquium is one of the longest-standing technical and scientific lecture series in the Washington/Baltimore area. The goal of the Colloquium has been to bring scientific scholars, technical innovators, industry leaders, government sponsors, and policymakers to APL to inform, educate, and enlighten Laboratory staff on what is currently exciting, relevant, and of value to the work of APL.
