Labs of the Lab

Abstract

The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) creates technologies and innovations that serve national priorities and expand the frontiers of science. By combining creativity and technical expertise with a culture of risk-taking—brought together in cutting-edge collaboration spaces, labs, and test facilities across its campuses—APL’s researchers tackle increasingly difficult challenges with impacts across multiple domains. This article, the first in a recurring series, highlights just a few of the specialized laboratories enabling APL staff members’ critical contributions to the Lab, its sponsors, and the nation.
