Scientists are developing ways to detect previously unseen forms of fentanyl as well as other synthetic opioids known as nitazenes.

In the latest issue of the Domestic Preparedness Journal, Ashley Bradley and Kristin Omberg share how new research is shedding light on the scientific and technological challenges with detecting fentanyl.

A new report highlights the results of an assessment PNNL conducted of field-portable detection products used by first responders to detect illicit substances like fentanyl in the field.

Algae can collect and concentrate rare earth metals from seawater—an alternative to imported sources mined from the ground.

PNNL forensic toxicologist has been invited to serve on a committee of experts charged with improving U.S. strategies for preventing, countering, and responding to chemical terrorism threats.

A comprehensive literature review linking algae and antivirals determines compounds in algae may demonstrate an exceptional—and as yet untapped—potential to combat viral diseases at every point along the viral infection pathway.

PNNL is lending analytics expertise to a new first-of-its-kind electric-vehicle carsharing program being launched in Hood River, Oregon.

A webapp developed by PNNL in collaboration with the University of Washington to help drive efficiencies for urban delivery drivers is now in the prototype stage and ready for testing.

Using public data from the entire 1,500-square-mile Los Angeles metropolitan area, PNNL researchers reduced the time needed to create a traffic congestion model by an order of magnitude, from hours to minutes.

Researchers at PNNL are contributing artificial intelligence, machine learning, and app development expertise to a U of W project that will ease challenges with urban freight delivery. The project will provide delivery drivers with a tool

Thanksgiving is a time for us to reflect on our many blessings, and being a part of the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is one for which I am especially grateful.
