Researchers from the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have organized a variety of geochemistry symposia at the American Chemical Society's annual meeting. As chair of the 2017 Geochemistry Division Medal Committee, …
Chemist Erin Baker was honored today with a "Rising Star" award at the national meeting of the American Chemical Society in San Francisco. The award recognizeswomen chemists who have demonstrated outstanding promise for contributions to their …
Reports of incidents involving chemical warfare agents and other weaponized toxic chemicals continue to make headlines. Highly specialized analysis of residues can be a means of providing evidence to convict perpetrators of chemical attacks. Similar …
It's like throwing away money. Carbon dioxide released by power plants could supply carbon atoms to create fuels and chemicals, or be used to push out leftover fuels from the subsurface. All these options rely heavily on economically viable …
When salmon journey down the Columbia River or molecules rearrange to become renewable fuel, you can count on research teams at Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory to follow. At the center of many of these teams are women- …
It's not often you see a Ferris wheel at a meeting of scientists. Or even a drawing of one. But Jason McDermott's poster at this week's meeting of the American Medical Informatics Association features not only a Ferris wheel but a robot, …
A chemical engineer at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory has been elected to the rank of fellow of the American Institute for Chemical Engineers. Reid Peterson was recognized for his accomplishments in nuclear waste …
Officials are celebrating the installation of the world's largest containerized vanadium flow battery storage system by capacity, which uses electrolyte chemistry developed at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. …
A materials science researcher at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory has been elected to the rank of fellow of the Materials Research Society. Chongmin Wang was recognized for his contributions to the development of …
A five-month study of mountaintop clouds in Colorado's Park Range has delivered crucial information about how clouds over North America are affected by Saharan dust, about mountaintop cloud microphysics, and myriad other topics. The study, known as …
Scientists at EMSL and their colleagues from several institutions have learned more about how molds become cellular factories that can synthesize a range of diverse products, including precursors to alternative fuels. The researchers found that a cellular …
Over the years, doctoral candidates have interned at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, conducting research in areas ranging from energy to national security to fundamental science. Some students have even co-authored scientific papers and …
A power grid researcher at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory has been elected to the rank of fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. Henry Huang was recognized by IEEE for his contributions to …
Three scientists from the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory recently gave a crash course on soil to young children at a local elementary school. Peyton Smith, Alex Crump and Taniya RoyChowdhury scurried around the classroom, …
Advances in science require vast computational resources. Next generation supercomputers will help create a smart power grid and enable breakthroughs like reconstructing microbiomes, designing chemicals or materials at the molecular level, and modeling and …
Analysis by the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is helping inform energy efficiency discussions in Hawaii. The Aloha State is considering upgrading its building codes to the 2015 International Energy Conservation Code, …
Scientists have found adding a pinch of something new to a battery's electrolyte gives the energy storage devices more juice per charge than today's commonly used rechargeable batteries. New, early-stage research shows adding a small amount of the …
Although invisible to our telescopes, dark matter is known by its gravitational effects throughout the universe. The nature of dark matter is unknown, but the consensus of the astrophysics and particle physics communities is that the dark matter is …
Two researchers at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have been elected to membership in the prestigious National Academy of Engineering. Ruby Leung and Johannes Lercher are among the 106 new members elected worldwide to …
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease are more likely to see dramatic shifts in the make-up of the community of microbes in their gut than healthy people, according to the results of a study published online Feb. 13 in Nature Microbiology. While …
