Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab)

Fermilab works as the world's leading particle physics lab because of people power--the people who work at Fermilab, the people who make it a community as well as a research institution. Always a strong proponent of "physics without borders," Fermilab is host to almost 3,000 scientists and students who take part in the lab's experiments--some 1,800 from 106 institutions in 37 states in the U.S., and over 1,100 from 153 institutions in 31 foreign countries. Men and women of all backgrounds and nationalities work side by side in the quest to learn the universe's deepest secrets.
