PNNL welcomes new joint appointments to expand the research productivity and scientific impact of both PNNL and the university partners, broadening the base of expertise at each institution and helping to build interdisciplinary teams.

A new nano-optical bioimaging technology in development at PNNL enables researchers to watch climate-bellwether microbes exchange metabolites and other essential signals.

Xantheas was one of four professors in 2021/2022 to be selected by the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities for this award.

More realistically representing crops and agricultural practices dramatically improves simulations of carbon and energy exchange.

A combined experimental and computational approach showed that the hydration shell of hydroxide has a four-coordinate binding.

PNNL senior materials scientist Keerti Kappagantula has been named to the 2023 Nominating Committee of ASM International.

Thin oxide films play an important role in electronics and energy storage. Researchers in PNNL’s film growth laboratory create, explore, and improve new thin oxide films.

PNNL’s Katie Arkema was selected to be on NASEM committee focused on public health and conservation.

Department of Energy, Office of Science Director Asmeret Asefaw Berhe visited PNNL to learn about the Lab’s drive to conduct discovery science, commitment to science for an equitable future, and development of a diversified STEM workforce.

Mitra Taheri served as a co-editor on a special issue of the Materials Research Society Bulletin, which also featured work from Daniel Schreiber and Cindy Powell.

A multi-omics analysis provides the framework for gaining insights into the structure and function of microbial communities across multiple habitats on a planetary scale

Combining peptoids and carbon nanotube porins creates a new class of stable membranes with potential applications in separations science.

A rich and largely untapped reservoir of lipids in soil environments was used to examine microorganisms’ physiological responses to drying-rewetting cycles.

Snekmer is an application for building and searching protein family models and novel sequence clusters.

Newly developed models can help rapidly optimize systems to meet the need for rapidly deployable commercial carbon capture.

In new work, PNNL researchers find that 10 gigatons of carbon dioxide may need to be pulled from Earth's atmosphere and oceans annually to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees. A diverse suite of carbon dioxide removal methods will be key.

Among the highest forms of internal recognition, DOE Secretary Honor Awards recognize those who go above and beyond in service to the country.

A combined experimental and modeling study shows that electronic interactions direct how a metal-organic framework grows.

Machine learning models help identify important environmental properties that influence how often extreme rain events occur with critical intensity and duration.
