By combining computational modeling with experimental research, scientists identified a promising composition that reduces the need for a critical material in an alloy that can withstand extreme environments.

Future holiday homecomings could include efficient heat pumps in cold climates and homes designed and built with the environment in mind.

Summer is for science! PNNL’s interns are diving into science and technology and getting a front-row view of the research and development of a national laboratory.

From energy-efficient buildings to new manufacturing techniques, researchers at PNNL strive for sustainability and a decarbonization.

Exploring why some brains are more resilient to the impact of Alzheimer’s disease could lead to improved diagnoses, treatment and prevention.

Road tripping? PNNL’s researchers driving science and technology for clean, efficient and convenient transportation.

Studying MERS-CoV may lead to better treatments for a host of respiratory illnesses, including the many variants of COVID-19.

From water purification, to better batteries and tools to foil a cyberattack—a look back at how PNNL helped to invent a brighter and better future over the last year.

Researchers developed two solutions for air-conditioning—a novel, energy-efficient dehumidification system and a technology to detect refrigerant leaks. Both help increase energy-efficiency and reduce costs.

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

Researchers delivering new solutions to speed development and deployment of advanced reactor concepts.

This time of year finds many of us busy with holiday shopping. While PNNL might not be developing the latest video games or hoverboards, we are working hard to deliver a few presents you might like.

Many of us are looking forward to next month's Apple Cup as the Cougars and Huskies battle for regional pigskin pride. At PNNL, however, we strive to bring these gridiron competitors together to collaborate on research and development.

It has been said that invention is the process of turning money into ideas and innovation is the process of turning ideas into money.

Thanksgiving is a time for us to reflect on our many blessings, and being a part of the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is one for which I am especially grateful.

Nuclear power figures prominently in our country's energy portfolio and is essential to our economic and environmental security.

July in the Tri-Cities usually brings sunny skies, hot weather and high demand for electricity as many of us retreat to air-conditioned homes and offices.

Cybersecurity is increasingly top-of-mind and in the news. Individuals worry about identify theft and the compromise of financial and medical records. And the federal government battles myriad threats aimed at our national security.

As a Department of Energy national laboratory, you would expect Pacific Northwest National Laboratory to perform research in chemistry, physics and engineering in support of our energy, environmental and security missions.

School's out, which means a new group of interns is settling into summer research assignments with mentors at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in Richland.
