PNNL has created and licensed a system that sniffs out trace levels of fentanyl, other drugs and explosives through the air.

CESER and PNNL convened a three-day summit with more than 100 state officials, cybersecurity experts, and industry leaders across 35 states to advance energy security planning, cyber risk assessment, and fortify protections against attacks.

Danny Herrera, a systems engineer and leader in the National Security Directorate at PNNL, has been named the new co-director of the Institute for Cybersecurity and Resilient Infrastructure Studies.

PNNL was recognized for its significant contributions to projects at the Secretary’s Honor Awards Ceremony in Washington, D.C.

Over the next four years, PNNL and University of Arizona will develop open-source computational tools to better identify and characterize the viruses associated with the human microbiome.

Scientists are exploring how web search engine technology might also keep the lights on, the water running and the trains moving.

Researchers developed a robust, cost-effective, and easy-to-use cap-based technique for spatial proteome mapping, addressing the lack of accessible proteomics technologies for studying tissue heterogeneity and microenvironments.

The Testing Risks of AI for National Security Taskforce will address critical safety and security concerns related to artificial intelligence.

A team of researchers recently coordinated a series of international workshops aimed at enhancing chemical research security and fostering collaboration among scientists and academic researchers from both countries.

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

Protecting critical systems such as the electrical grid from cyber-based risks to the supply chain is the focus of a new PNNL conference.

Scientists plumbed the depths of nearly 3,000 soil samples from around the globe to compile the heftiest atlas of soil viruses ever created.

Operators of critical infrastructure are trained to respond to cyberattacks using scale models of water treatment plants, freight rail yards, and more.

Ryan Eddy, director of homeland security programs at PNNL, was recognized as one of 50 trailblazers by Homeland Security Today.

At PNNL, researchers are taking a wider look at the system through the supply chain’s lifecycle and subcomponents to determine the big-picture risks.

A cross-institutional team of scientists developed PeakQC, a new software tool for automated quality control of mass spectrometry data.

Three PNNL researchers will receive five continuous years of funding for projects through highly competitive DOE Early Career Research Program awards.

Despite the widespread presence of RNA viruses in soils, little is known about the relative contributions and interactions of biological and environmental factors shaping the composition of soil RNA viral communities.

Ljiljana Paša-Tolić, a PNNL fellow, is the recipient of the 2024 International Mass Spectrometry Foundation’s Jochen Franzen Award. 

Scientists have developed a way to detect tiny amounts of hard-to-detect explosives more than eight feet away.
