 | | Upton, NY – During a visit to Brookhaven National Laboratory's Elementary School Science Fair on May 8, Congressman Tim Bishop (First Congressional District, Suffolk County) said he remembered with fondness the day that his daughter – now 25 years old – won a prize in the Lab's annual science fair. |
 | | Addressing Brookhaven Lab scientists and local elementary school teachers who volunteered to be judges in the fair, Congressman Bishop said, "There are not enough scientists in this country," and he praised the fair, which aims to interest students in science and encourage their efforts in scientific exploration. |
 | | Brookhaven is operated and managed for DOE's Office of Science by Brookhaven Science Associates, a limited-liability company founded by the Research Foundation of the State University of New York on behalf of Stony Brook University, the largest academic user of Laboratory facilities, and Battelle, a nonprofit, applied science and technology organization. |
