STFC's Daresbury Laboratory is celebrating 40 years of world-changing impact thanks to research carried out at its Synchrotron Radiation Source facility (SRS), one of the world’s most pioneering scientific inventions of its time. 

Daresbury Laboratory’s popular Talking Science programme is back and this time you can join virtually from the comfort of your own home. 

STFC’s Edinburgh-based Public Engagement team have been busy during the summer, working with local families as part of a city-wide initiative.

Collaboration is a touchstone of modern scientific research. STFC uses open data projects that allow researchers to work together to increase the circulation and exploitation of knowledge.

Colleagues in the Mechanical, Metrology and Technical Engineering Group (MMTE) at Daresbury Laboratory are usually 'hands on’ designing, testing and building for many large national and international projects which come through Daresbury Laboratory.

Researchers working at STFC’s Central Laser Facility (CLF) investigating catalyst materials used in the production of gasoline from simple hydrocarbons, such as methanol, have made a new and unexpected discovery that could help to reduce the cost, and environmental impact, of the process.

The European Southern Observatory (ESO) has published three papers about ground-breaking instrument, MOONS.

…cool tech that helps us to see more clearly through 3D biological tissue samples and into the Universe.
