Since its creation in 1946, the Office of Naval Research (ONR) has supported the early-career research of more than 60 Nobel laureates. ONR is proud to add two new names to that prestigious list — Dr. David Baker of the University of Washington (UW) and Dr. John Hopfield of Princeton University, who received the 2024 Nobel Prize in chemistry and physics, respectively.

For the fifth consecutive year, the U.S. Navy leads the government in an annual ranking of patent portfolios.

The Office of Naval Research's Structural Metals program emphasizes developing the fundamental understanding needed to discover, design, and produce high-performance structural metals.

The Navy faces the complex task of efficiently managing diverse material streams, either generated as operational byproducts or at the end of their service life. The Office of Naval Research's Materials Treatment and Recovery program ensures their appropriate treatment and recovery.

The objective of the Office of Naval Research's RF Semiconductor Devices, RF Solid State Amplifiers and Wide Bandgap Materials program is to develop solid state (e.g., wide bandgap semiconductor), low noise, high speed electronic devices and circuits for use in surveillance, electronic warfare, multifunctional RF systems and communications.

The Office of Naval Research's Materials & Processes for Additive Manufacturing (AM) program is focused on exploring new and novel approaches in developing and understanding AM materials and manufacturing processes for naval applications.

For the past three years, the Daytona Beach Homeschoolers have competed against the finest technical universities in the world—and they've been winning.

New hull coatings being developed by the Office of Naval Research (ONR) are showing promise in reducing the build-up of marine crustaceans – namely barnacles – on ships´ hulls, optimizing vessel performance and dramatically reducing fuel costs.

The Office of Naval Research's Chemical Physics program seeks to deepen the understanding of the interactions between Naval systems and the chemicals that surround them.

The Office of Naval Research's Computer-Aided Materials Design (CAMD) program funds research projects in materials design.
