<p>Argonne National Laboratory invites applications for the position of Deputy Associate Laboratory Director DALD for Science &amp; Technology, at the Photon Sciences Directorate (PSC) of Argonne National Laboratory. PSC is home to the Advanced Photon Source (APS), the leading high-brightness hard x-ray synchrotron light source in the world, and one of the large-scale scientific user facilities funded by Basic Energy Sciences in the Office of Science of the Department of Energy. PSC is also developing new accelerator technologies for future light sources. The APS facility has 72 experimental facilities that attract more than 5,000 unique scientific users each year carrying out research in various disciplines in the natural sciences. The APS is one of the most productive large scale user facilities in the world, with more than 40,000 publications to date, many societal impacts and operating in direct support of the nation’s economic competitiveness. The facility recently completed a major accelerator upgrade to a 4th generation storage ring that will deliver world-leading X-ray brightness. The upgrade is also transforming our X-ray research capabilities by delivering 9 new beamlines and upgrades to 14 of our existing beamlines.</p><p></p><p>The DALD is responsible for the science and R&amp;D strategic programs in PSC and oversees the strategic partnership program including scientific and technology partnerships with the existing Collaborative Access Teams of the APS.
