PNNL’s year in review includes highlights ranging from advancing soil science to understanding Earth systems, expanding electricity transmission, detecting fentanyl, and applying artificial intelligence to aid scientific discovery.

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

PNNL’s software tool brings together artificial intelligence and satellite imagery to help responders assess damage and take action.

Science and engineering solutions helping keep America safe from explosive, radiological, biological and cyber threats.

Tools being developed at PNNL are helping the nation plan for, respond to and recover from severe storms and wildfires that could threaten critical energy systems.

When disaster strikes, first responders rush in to provide assistance. In addition to their courage and training, they depend on a panoply of technologies to do their jobs.

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