Building on our commitment to American scientific discovery
We first announced our partnership with the US Department of Energy (DOE) and the Genesis Mission last December. Since then, we have worked with DOE to bring Claude to scientists across the national laboratories. Today, we announced this new commitment as part of the Science: A New Golden Age Summit hosted by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy in Washington, DC.
Supporting American scientists
We share the administration’s view, laid out in “Science: A New Golden Age,” that AI can have a profound and positive impact on scientific discovery, and we are glad to back its efforts to support American scientists.
Researchers at federal agencies and national laboratories work on some of the world’s most difficult scientific problems. Through our commitment, we aim to help them use Claude to meaningfully advance their work. Over the next three years, we will:
- Provide Claude, Claude Code, and API credits to several hundred Genesis Mission research projects;
- Partner closely with agencies and national laboratories on the administration’s top science priorities, including fusion energy and quantum computing; and
- Provide training, onboarding, and technical support to scientists on Genesis Mission projects, and help agencies new to the Genesis Mission get their first projects running.
Accelerating scientific research
This commitment is part of our broader effort to support scientific research. Earlier this year we launched Claude Science, an AI workbench that integrates the tools and packages researchers most commonly use, and opened 10,000 free and discounted Claude seats for academic scientists. We also expanded our AI for Science program, which gives credits to researchers on high-impact projects, and kicked off a research preview of the Model Hardware Standard, a shared specification for AI agents to safely operate lab instruments. Our commitment to the Genesis Mission is our next step toward helping researchers everywhere.
把大额模型与算力资源直投联邦科研体系,等于让Claude嵌入国家实验室日常工作流。对政府科研机构、实验室及AI辅助科研团队有参考价值,也显示厂商争夺科研入口的路径。
