PNNL researchers are opening up a new front in the fight to stop viral pathogens, protecting people against multiple viruses.

The Coastal Observations, Mechanisms, and Predictions Across Systems and Scales: Field, Measurements, and Experiments project established a network of observational field sites across Chesapeake Bay and western Lake Erie.

This study characterized above- and below-ground properties to explore the spatial heterogeneity of the terrestrial aquatic interface ecosystem within the Chesapeake Bay area and evaluate the major drivers of soil respiration.

Over the next four years, PNNL and University of Arizona will develop open-source computational tools to better identify and characterize the viruses associated with the human microbiome.

This study evaluated the sensitivity of multiple geophysical methods to measure and evaluate the spatiotemporal variability of select soil properties across terrestrial–aquatic interfaces.

Researchers integrated field measurements, lab experiments, and model simulations to study oxygen consumption dynamics in soils along a coastal gradient.

This research explores how changes in groundwater levels affect the chemistry of underground water, especially in areas where land meets water, like wetlands.

Scientists plumbed the depths of nearly 3,000 soil samples from around the globe to compile the heftiest atlas of soil viruses ever created.

A cross-institutional team of scientists developed PeakQC, a new software tool for automated quality control of mass spectrometry data.

Three PNNL researchers will receive five continuous years of funding for projects through highly competitive DOE Early Career Research Program awards.

Despite the widespread presence of RNA viruses in soils, little is known about the relative contributions and interactions of biological and environmental factors shaping the composition of soil RNA viral communities.

Ljiljana Paša-Tolić, a PNNL fellow, is the recipient of the 2024 International Mass Spectrometry Foundation’s Jochen Franzen Award. 

New research sheds light on the biomolecular dangers of night shift work.

Vigorous exercise burns fat more in males than in females, but the benefits of exercise are broad for both sexes.

PNNL contributes to a nationwide research consortium investigating the molecular mechanisms triggered by endurance training.

Data reveals mechanisms in our bodies that can help us fight viral pathogenesis.

Scientists have learned more about how to protect the insulin-producing cells that die in patients with Type 1 diabetes.

Scientists have learned more about how drug resistance develops in patients with acute myeloid leukemia and how the process might be slowed.

The new PTM-Psi workflow opens the door for uncovering molecular insights within proteomics datasets.

Scientists screen for nanobodies that recognize wild type and mutant functional proteins to develop a framework to disrupt protein interactions that can cause disease.
