Science is FUNdamental for kids day at PNNL

PNNL research has created a unique video that shows oxygen bubbles inflating and later deflating inside a tiny lithium-air battery. The knowledge gained from the video could help make lithium-air batteries that are more compact, stable and

April 26 marks the 31st anniversary of the explosion at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant's Unit 4 reactor. Battelle researchers at PNNL were involved in an international consortium to look at long-term safety and containment of Unit 4. T

High concentrations of tiny pollution particles can invigorate cloud formation and boost snowfall on mountains, according to a new study.

PNNL scientists have developed a system to convert methane into an energy-rich substance that can be used as the basis for biofuels and even feed for cows that create the gas in the first place.

Rick Corley has been honored for his work modeling the full chain of human respiration, from organ, to tissue, to cell, and down to individual molecule.

The rate of plant photosynthesis globally has blossomed this century, according to a new study in the journal Nature by a scientist at the Joint Global Change Research Institute and his colleagues.
