Scientists map how transitions from day to night control gene regulatory networks in cyanobacteria, revealing key orchestrators of metabolic switching.

Scientists uncover how cyanobacteria's circadian cycle controls carbon and energy metabolism, increasing carbon dioxide-to-bioproducts yields.

Lauren Charles, a chief data scientist at PNNL, showcased the vital research coming out of her program at The National Academies Forum workshop in Washington, D.C., January 15–16, 2025.

PNNL is hosting a scientific conference focused directly on understanding and predicting the collection of an organism’s traits.

Circadian rhythms of blue-green microbes offer new window into predictive phenomics—how to predict and control the traits of an organism.

This week at AAAS, PNNL scientists discuss phenomics and the factors that influence DNA instructions to bring about the world around us.

PNNL scientists use proteomics to unveil how high-density lipoproteins protect against cholesterol accumulation in the artery wall.

Computing and artificial intelligence aid scientists who seek to understand function-driven design and control of biological systems.

PNNL biodefense experts seek to identify, understand and mitigate the risks of biological pathogens—whether naturally occurring or intentionally created—so steps can be taken to prepare and respond.

Researchers will explore climate, pathogens and energy-efficient microelectronics using 3 million node hours on the nation’s supercomputers.

Research at PNNL and the University of Texas at El Paso are addressing computational challenges of thinking beyond the list and developing bioagent-agnostic signatures to assess threats.

Models have identified a new source of anthropogenic emissions driving the observed weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation.

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

Less pollution and the odd shapes of snow grains as they pack together should help cut the decline of snowpack later this century.

Scientists developed a process (or pipeline) that combined molecular probes—a specific chemical that binds to microbes carrying out a particular function—with a method that isolated these cells from their complex community.

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

In a new paper, researchers point to three major efforts where the biggest climate mitigation gains stand to be realized: ramping up carbon dioxide removal, reigning in non-carbon dioxide emissions and halting deforestation.
