The Electron-Ion Collider is considered to be essential to the United States’ ability to contribute to world-leading scientific research. Researchers hope such a machine can help answer fundamental questions about ordinary matter, revealing for the first time and in detail how matter’s smallest building blocks and nature’s universal forces combine to build our visible universe.
We are a world-leading nuclear physics research facility where great ideas and great people can thrive. At Jefferson Lab, you can work with exceptional people, grow your skills and advance your career. Our team consists of more than 700 people, ranging from nuclear physicists, engineers and computer programmers to graphic artists, procurement specialists and accountants.
Joanna Griffin, a Graphic Designer for Jefferson Lab, smiles when recalling sweet memories of her first exposure to art: painting alongside her mother.
The daughter of a Swedish artist and a Ukrainian civil engineer for the United States government, Griffin spent most of her childhood traveling. Her father, who speaks seven languages, took full advantage of international work opportunities.
