Although originally conceived as a nuclear research facility, Brookhaven Lab's mission has greatly expanded. Its foci are now:
Nuclear and high-energy physics
Physics and chemistry of materials
Environmental and climate research
Nanomaterials
Energy research
Nonproliferation
Structural biology
We shall see.
The same type of research is done in other government funded labs. Lots of money can be saved by Consolidating research. Each lab should focus on more intensive research in specific areas. Duplication is expensive and wasteful.
