A paper by PNNL researchers has been chosen as one of 32 NIEHS Papers of the Year—a top 1% honor in the research field.

Microbes that were previously frozen in soils are becoming more active. This study demonstrates the diverse RNA viral communities found in thawed permafrost.

PNNL Biomedical Scientist Geremy Clair has taken on new roles as an editor for two journals; Frontiers In Cellular And Infection Microbiology and Frontiers In Molecular Biosciences.

Findings show method to better prepare human lung tissue for study; it represents the latest mass spectrometry-based omics advances.

To thwart pathogens, researchers in the epidemiology field of infectious disease (ID) prediction are continuously trying to forecast when, where, and how an ID event will occur.

Studying how microorganisms behave in space could facilitate farming in the final frontier and lead to better crops on Earth.

Silicone wristbands could be more convenient option for collecting exposure data.

Organismal contribution and community interaction drive soil organic matter breakdown by microbes.

PNNL computational neuroscientist Rogene Eichler West honored with the International Society for Neuroregulation & Research Joseph and Ann Marie Horvat Distinguished Service Award.

Scientists can detect the virus that causes COVID-19 by using a bubble that spills its contents like a piñata when encountering the virus.

Identifying a novel gene function on soil viruses.

Microbes and viruses play key roles in carbon and nitrogen cycling in riverbed sediments.

Proteins from “auxiliary” genes in soil viruses play a role in the carbon cycle and climate, scientists have found.

Interns dive into important research that addresses national needs.

Read interviews with the new Laboratory fellows to learn about their contributions to their field, what drives them, and how their research is making the nation safer, greener, and more resilient.

A process developed at PNNL that converts biomass and waste into a chemical intermediate or into gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel is available for commercial licensing.

TransMED analyzes patient data from similar diseases across multiple sources to understand COVID-19 patient outcome risk factors.

A novel combination of temperature and four-dimensional geophysical sensors revealed otherwise unseeable hydrologic dynamics below riverbed sediments.

Forms of nitrogen released by nitrogen-fixing bacteria differ across sampling scales and in structured environments.

Dominant and functionally important soil microbes show strong, predictable, and distinctly different associations with continental-scale gradients in climate, vegetation, and soil moisture.
