Brian Milbrath, a physicist in PNNL’s National Security Directorate, was named a senior member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).

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

PNNL researchers developed two web-based tools to assess and mitigate cyberthreats to utilities—inside and outside their firewalls. Both are low cost and can be used by control room operators who are not cybersecurity experts.

An award-winning ion separation technology developed at PNNL has been licensed for biomedical applications. Continued research aims to make the devices suitable for molecular analysis in the field.  

In a new video series this fall, PNNL is highlighting six scientific and technical experts in the national security domain. Each was promoted to Scientist and Engineer Level 5, one of PNNL’s most senior research roles.

James A. Ang, a PNNL computing expert, was recently invited to moderate a panel in a virtual workshop focused on federally funded research and development on software for heterogeneous computing.

PNNL researchers established an Internet of Things Common Operating Environment (IoTCOE) laboratory to explore the risks associated with IoT connectivity to the internet, the energy grid and other critical infrastructures.

Today’s critical infrastructure systems are increasingly vulnerable to attacks that could cripple civil society, according to cybersecurity experts.

PNNL and the Georgia Institute of Technology vow to collaborate more impactfully and more often in a new MOU announced October 23, 2020.

The Facility Cybersecurity toolkit, developed by PNNL, is designed for federal facilities to help implement the presidential executive order on cybersecurity, but it is also available for commercial facilities without charge.

Tracking down nefarious users is just one example of work at PNNL’s Center for Advanced Technology Evaluation, a computing proving ground supported by DOE’s Advanced Scientific Computing Research program.

Lauren Charles, a PNNL senior data scientist, has joined the editorial board of Pathogens. Pathogens is an international peer-reviewed open access journal of pathogens and pathogen-host interaction.

PNNL researchers devised a new method to probe the atomic structure of plutonium-containing microcrystals using laboratory-based equipment.

PNNL’s expertise is the foundation for monitoring technology that identifies trace amounts of radioactive materials and determines whether they are indicative of a nuclear explosion.

In recognition of Nuclear Science Week on Oct. 19-23, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory reflects on more than half a century of advancing nuclear science for the nation’s energy, environment, and security frontiers.

Predictive models indicate cells regulate enzyme activity to maintain liquid center.

Researchers at PNNL have increased the conductivity of copper wire by about five percent via a process called Shear Assisted Processing and Extrusion. General Motors tested the wire for application in vehicle motor components.

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.

Each summer, PNNL invites middle and high school STEM teachers from nearby underrepresented and underserved rural communities from the Mid-Columbia Basin region to participate in the Teacher-Scientist Partnership.

Jonathan Forman, science and technology advisor at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, was announced as the winner of the Hall of Fame award in the innovator category by the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons.
