JILA is the name of our world class research institute, and is no longer used as an acronym. When JILA began in 1962 as a joint institute of the University of Colorado Boulder and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (then known as the National Bureau of Standards), the acronym stood for "Joint Institute for Laboratory Astrophysics". However, for many years JILA has been a world-renowned and award-winning physics institute delving into cutting-edge research in quantum information science & technology, atomic & molecular physics, laser physics, biophysics, chemical physics, nanoscience, and precision measurement.
