Several PNNL scientists contributed to the virtual Society of Toxicology meeting in March.

With quantum chemistry, researchers led by PNNL computational scientist Simone Raugei are discovering how enzymes such as nitrogenase serve as natural catalysts that efficiently break apart molecular bonds to control energy and matter.

Vigorous and rapid air exchanges might not always be a good thing when it comes to levels of coronavirus particles in a multiroom building, according to a new modeling study.

Night shift work disrupts the natural 24-hour rhythms in the activity of certain cancer-related genes, making workers more vulnerable to damage to their DNA.

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, PNNL is offering support to its neighbors in the Mid-Columbia region and across Washington State.

E-cigarette exposure stresses and inflames the lungs of rats, compromising important quality control proteins, according to new research.

In a first-of-its-kind study, PNNL scientists are learning about how e-cigarettes can lead to changes in proteins at the molecular level that could contribute to disease or other health problems.

Connected moments math shortcut shaves time and cost of quantum calculations while maintaining accuracy.

The project received an Innovative and Novel Computational Impact on Theory and Experiment (INCITE) award, a highly competitive U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science program.

Researchers at PNNL have developed a bacteria testing system called OmniScreen that combines biological and synthetic chemistry with machine learning to hunt down pathogens before they strike.

A zoonotic coronavirus known as SADS-CoV that has killed many pigs has the ability to infect human cells, surprising scientists.

A PNNL engineering team has designed personal protective equipment in support of COVID-19 aid.

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory researchers used machine learning to explore the largest water clusters database, identifying—with the most accurate neural network—important information about this life-essential molecule.

The nation’s ability to test for COVID-19 has expanded, thanks to work at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, where scientists have established the performance of testing equipment to detect the virus.

Researchers from PNNL have helped colleagues at OHSU identify lipid molecules required for Zika infection in human cells. The specific lipids involved could also be a clue to why the virus primarily infects brain tissue.

Biomedical scientist Brian Thrall co-edited the issue published in the journal NanoImpact. Three of the articles in the issue include multiple PNNL authors.

The PNNL chemist is leading a joint effort to study circadian rhythms and the gut microbiome.

Researchers from 25 institutions around the country, including PNNL, are working to find out how exercise changes the molecular makeup of our cells to generate health benefits.

Joint appointments at UW and OSU help PNNL’s Katrina Waters further collaborations in infectious disease and toxicology research.

PNNL computational biologist Bobbie-Jo Webb-Robertson was recently awarded the “Spirit of nPOD award” to acknowledge her hard work in building, coordinating, and leading the Data Science Working Group.
