Welcome to VERCIDA website.
Skip to main contentThe Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl) is an Executive Agency of the Ministry of
Defence. It is a most remarkable organisation of 5,000 scientists, engineers, technologists and other
specialists performing an extraordinary range of vital work that helps to keep our nation safe. We are
literally ‘The Science Inside’ defence and security.
Since being established in its current form just over 20 years ago and with a lineage reflecting how
science and technology has consistently underpinned national security, Dstl is now experiencing an
unprecedented level of growth. This is partly driven by the increasing importance attached to defence
and security as well as the Government’s determination to invest in science and technology more
generally. Dstl is by far the largest of the Public Sector Research Establishments, with an annual
income accelerating towards £1bn per annum.
