A comprehensive examination of APL’s integrated approach to strategy is featured in the current issue of the ”IEEE Engineering Management Review,” published by IEEE.

Five teams featuring APL investigators have earned 2023 Johns Hopkins Discovery Awards. The researchers were among 115 individuals from teams selected to receive awards of up to $100,000 per team.

Johns Hopkins APL researchers have developed a revolutionary metasurface materials technology that enables precise control over electromagnetic signals, offering potential for improved communications in crowded environments and promising advancements in telecommunications and low-power sensing applications.

On July 3, the integrated gondola and payload for NASA’s Galactic/Extragalactic ULDB Spectroscopic Terahertz Observatory (GUSTO) shipped from Johns Hopkins APL on a long route to Antarctica.

Just months after a successful launch from French Guiana, the two particle-detecting instruments APL built on behalf of NASA for Europe’s Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer mission have already displayed their sophisticated capabilities.

NASA’s Dragonfly mission - designed, built and managed by Johns Hopkins APL - will explore Titan’s environment to sample materials and determine surface composition in different geologic settings.

For the fifth year in a row, APL has been named by Fast Company as one of the Best Workplaces for Innovators in 2023, placing 17th among a list of the top 100 innovative companies from around the world.

Responding to a human infection with highly pathogenic bird flu, a collaboration between APL and the Institut Pasteur du Cambodge rapidly turned patient samples into data, informing community response in near real time. APL leads similar efforts around the world to sequence and characterize pathogens as they emerge, with the goal of preventing new pandemics.

APL has named Kristine Frohman as head of the Talent Services Department and chief diversity, equity and inclusion officer, effective June 5.

Researchers from APL and the University of Colorado Boulder are teaming up on a project to better understand and eventually predict wear and damage affecting thermal protection systems.
