The administration unveiled more than $6 billion in science and technology initiatives to accelerate AI, quantum computing, nuclear-powered space exploration and biomedical research, coordinating efforts across federal agencies, industry partners, universities and philanthropies.

The National Science Foundation and the Department of Energy will jointly supply over $100 million to fund advanced scientific instruments and autonomous laboratories.

In quantum computing, the Energy Department launched a $215 million competition to develop fault-tolerant quantum computers capable of solving scientifically relevant problems.

A regional computing consortium will invest $1 billion in computing infrastructure and workforce training, engaging more than 14 universities across 10 states and establishing a separate research computing hub with five universities in the Carolinas.

Genesis Mission funding includes $2.4 billion in computing resources and technology support from 11 industry partners, with contributions from Nvidia, AMD, OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and others to accelerate scientific discoveries through advanced AI.

Biomedical research is a major emphasis, anchored by a $1.8 billion initiative from NIH, the Energy Department and Biohub to develop virtual models of cells and biological systems for improved disease prediction and treatment responses.

An X-Labs Consortium will receive over $310 million from industry and philanthropy to back multidisciplinary teams addressing broad scientific and tech challenges.

These announcements build on prior federal investments, including the Genesis Mission and an NSF initiative for independent research laboratories, while expanding collaboration with industry and philanthropy to broaden computing and research capacity.

NASA and the Energy Department outlined plans for nuclear-powered spacecraft and lunar energy systems, including Space Reactor-1 for a Mars mission in 2028 and Lunar Reactor-1 on the Moon.

More than 15 federal agencies will be supported by these investments, aimed at transforming energy, healthcare, space and other fields through a broadened American scientific enterprise.

A $100 million Genesis Mission Fellowship will fund accelerated doctoral programs that blend AI with science and engineering, with expanded opportunities for gifted students and early-career researchers.
