Laboratory for Analytic Sciences

LAS is a collaboration between government, academic, and industry professionals. The organization creates innovative technology that bolsters national security and improves intelligence analysis. LAS is mission-oriented. Its teams discover technology that can quickly inspect large amounts of information in order to identify opportunities and counter threats. LAS’s research is translational—applying laboratory discoveries to real-world challenges. In the medical world, translational research means “from bench to bedside.” In the intelligence world, LAS’s translational research bridges the gap between great ideas discovered in an academic setting and the problems the intelligence community is trying to solve. At LAS, the organization collaborates, innovates, and transforms.
