Twelve newly selected Phase II and six Phase I projects to advance the frontiers of Super Intelligence (SI) for science, capping a first-year cohort of 297 projects across the Genesis Mission portfolio.
WASHINGTON—The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) today announced 12 Phase II Genesis Mission project awards totaling $159 million. Building on the Genesis Mission’s growing portfolio of projects, first announced in July, these Phase II project awards will unleash scientific discoveries with Super Intelligence (SI).
President Trump launched the Genesis Mission in November 2025 to accelerate discovery and strengthen U.S. leadership in science, medicine, and technology.
“These projects represent a critical step in turning the promise of Super Intelligence for science into transformative scientific capability,” said DOE Under Secretary for Science Dr. Darío Gil. “The Phase II teams have already demonstrated what is possible when SI is integrated with scientific expertise, data, and computing. These awards give them the opportunity to take that work to the next level. By bringing together our National Labs, universities, and industry partners, we are building on extraordinary work already underway and accelerating the pace of discovery.”
The Phase II awards are developing new, powerful capabilities to tackle the Nation’s most complex National Science and Technology Challenges. By connecting America’s leading scientists with advanced SI, supercomputing, scientific data, and DOE’s world-class research infrastructure, the Genesis Mission is strengthening U.S. leadership at the frontiers of science and technology.
Through DOE’s Office of Science, the 12 newly awarded projects are:
These new selections bring the total number of Phase II projects to 14, alongside previously announced awards for GridFM 2.0 under the Office of Electricity and Prometheus under the Office of Nuclear Energy.
DOE is also issuing six new Phase I awards, expanding the Genesis Mission’s initial round of selections. More information about these and previously awarded projects is available here.
