From the Director of Photon Science: TransitionsIn today's director's column, I would like to inform you that I have decided to step down as associate laboratory director for the Photon Science Directorate at SLAC. The directorate has been successfully reorganized over the past six months into two divisions: Chemical Sciences and Materials Sciences Divisions. We have initiated the SUN-CAT center, and the joint SLAC-Stanford institutes PULSE and SIMES are integrated into the divisional structure. The stage is now set for scientific growth in strategically selected research areas, aligned with SLAC and Department of Energy Basic Energy Sciences mission needs. Much of the research couples to and helps drive the experimental capabilities of the Linac Coherent Light Source and Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource. There are also new initiatives in areas that are not directly coupled to the lightsources. Plans are underway to add a third division (biosciences) in the coming year. We have developed a long-range space plan to augment the existing and soon-to-be renovated laboratory and office space in Building 40, to provide the needed infrastructure to achieve our vision for future growth. I am very pleased to have played a leadership role in helping create the Photon Science Directorate three years ago and positioning it to contribute strongly to SLAC's transition to a true multi-program laboratory.
