The Science Polymer additives, such as polyethylene oxide (PEO), are widely used to enable smooth electrode deposition for electrochemical systems, including zinc-based batteries. However, exactly how these additives regulate morphology is unclear. …
With new computing capabilities come new cybersecurity hurdles. As technology braces for the future of quantum computing, national efforts aim to assist with understanding encryption and cybersecurity challenges that may await. A recent article in …
RICHLAND, Wash.—The Department of Energy granted early career awards to six researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory—a record number of recipients for PNNL in a single year. The prestigious award is designated for outstanding scientists early …
The Science When nanoparticles assemble into larger, more complex structures, the new architecture strongly influences the overall properties of the material. Finding ways to specifically direct and tune assembly can lead to materials with desired …
From subsurface monitoring demos to deep dives into modeling, system integration, and adaptive site management, the 2025 Global Summit on Environmental Remediation showcased the advantages of coordinated, science-driven strategies to address legacy …
As computing technologies evolve and advance, so too must the ways we perform scientific research. In a recently released report from the 2025 Workshop on Envisioning Frontiers in AI and Computing for Biological Research, researchers detailed how new …
RICHLAND, Wash.— The Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory has joined collaborators across the nation to develop and deploy artificial intelligence to vastly accelerate the speed of discovery for science, energy and national security …
Kabrena Rodda, a forensic toxicologist at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), last month participated on an expert panel about fentanyl, the leading contributor of drug overdoses in the United States. Hosted by New York Congressman Josh Riley …
A new microgrid testbed for energy technology development and testing is now online at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) Sequim campus (PNNL-Sequim). The testbed infrastructure streamlines the lengthy process for in-water testing of new …
RICHLAND, Wash.—There’s been a seismic shift in science, with scientists developing new AI tools and applying AI to just about any question that can be asked. Researchers are now putting actual seismic waves to work, using data from the world’s largest …
The Science Understanding how organisms like cyanobacteria adapt so quickly to changes in their environment is a significant challenge. Traditional systems biology approaches using proteomics generally track the quantities of protein present but miss …
Emilie Purvine, a chief data scientist at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), was elected as a council member at large of the American Mathematical Society (AMS). Purvine joins representatives from universities across the country in serving on …
The Department of Energy (DOE) Secretary Chris Wright paid his first visit to Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) late last year. Wright met with leading innovators in chemistry, biology, and computing to learn more about PNNL’s steadfast …
Rebecca O’Neil, a research principal in the Energy and Environment Directorate at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), was invited to testify before the House Committee on Energy and Commerce’s Subcommittee on Energy on January 13, 2026, at a …
It all started with a college field trip. Quin Miller, a chemist at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), was an undergraduate geology major at Whitman College in Walla Walla, Washington when his class went to see the Wallula Basalt Pilot …
RICHLAND, Wash.—In a historic event decades in the making, the Hanford Site recently began immobilizing low-activity, radioactive waste by converting it into glass: a process known as vitrification. The event marked the successful start-up of Hanford’s …
The Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Under Secretary for Science Darío Gil recently paid his first visit to DOE’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), where he highlighted the critical role that PNNL plays in DOE’s mission to advance artificial …
As more aspects of daily life shift online, the physical infrastructure supporting that shift is growing rapidly—often faster than anyone expected. Data centers, which power everything from web searches to artificial intelligence, are growing in number in …
The Science Host lipid structures and abundances are observed to be significantly altered during infection, but the mechanisms regulating lipid synthesis and modification during coronavirus infection remain largely unknown. In this study, Pacific Northwest …
