From enhancing biofuel crops to setting up automated experiments and improving energy storage—interns at PNNL are making an impact.

Scientists are studying tiny subatomic particles that pass through humans and possess clues about the origins of the universe.

PNNL researchers deploying and testing novel building technologies and energy-management approaches.

While some of us may periodically ponder the universe, most of us don't dedicate our lives to studying its mysteries, including its birth, evolution and fate.

Here at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, much of our physics research focuses on fundamental scientific discovery and national security.
