Five PNNL innovations earned 2026 R&D 100 Awards for advances in biotechnology, manufacturing, critical minerals, and nuclear security.

PNNL Launches Center for Robotics and Autonomy to advance trustworthy autonomous science at speed and scale.

Genesis Mission awards to PNNL will advance scientific discovery, next-generation energy systems and advanced manufacturing, among others.

Scientists are optimizing microbes to harvest critical minerals and produce bioproducts using AI and autonomous lab equipment.

Automated liquid handling, combined with data analysis and AI, optimizes microbiological growth conditions at PNNL.

Autonomous science laboratories are taking shape quickly across the PNNL campus.

From exploring the development of transformative materials to strengthening biotechnology, six up-and-coming PNNL scientists were recognized for their scientific vision and prowess.

PNNL is central to the Genesis Mission, leading and participating in projects central to the nation’s security and international competitiveness.

Secretary Wright visited PNNL's campus in Richland, Washington, late last year to meet with innovators in chemistry, biology, computing, and more.

New electees represent research in genomics, grid resilience, coastal ecology, and more.

Researchers from PNNL and Parallel Works, Inc., applied machine learning methods to predict how much oxygen and nutrients are used by microorganisms in river sediments.

Nine national laboratories, including PNNL, bring together over 1,000 scientists for a day to use AI to accelerate scientific discovery.
