Three recent doctoral graduates are beginning their research careers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory after completing the WSU-PNNL Distinguished Graduate Research Program this spring.

PNNL dose reconstruction expert Bruce Napier reviews report on public exposure to ionizing radiation for the United Nations.

Grid Forward, an industry association dedicated to promoting and accelerating innovation in the regional electric system, honored PNNL's Carl Imhoff with the 2021 Grid Innovator Award.

Risk analysis on the plutonium-fueled power system that supplies electricity to the Mars rover answered the “what if” nuclear safety questions for NASA.

PNNL researchers are using explainable artificial intelligence to develop new ways to understand and interpret data for national security.

PNNL's Brenda Wiesner creates one-of-a-kind artwork using peeling paint and rusty scraps from decommissioned RPM shells.

Explainable artificial intelligence—understanding and explaining the reasoning behind AI decisions—is a necessity for national security.

Explainable AI helps scientists understand and untangle the threads of information that the system uses to make choices or recommendations.

The Federal Laboratory Consortium for Technology Transfer has given three national awards to PNNL technology teams.

Ultra-trace radiation detection technique sets new global standard for measuring the nearly immeasurable.

A recent edition of the Infrastructure Resilience Research Group Journal featured an article written by PNNL researchers Rob Siefken and Jake Burns about “Design Basis Threat and the Low Threat Environment.”

As a physicist at PNNL, Jon Burnett’s work is about developing instruments to detect ultra-trace radionuclide signatures, analyze samples from around the world to look for evidence of nuclear explosions, and then interpret that information.

Despite the challenges, the talented and dedicated staff at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory kept delivering for the nation.

Quantum computing experts gather in the Pacific Northwest to discuss challenges and progress.

PNNL and the 13 other national laboratories of the Grid Modernization Laboratory Consortium (GMLC) will be sharing their R&D work and technologies for grid modernization at DistribuTECH International in San Antonio Jan. 28-30.

PNNL will lead three new grid modernization projects funded by the Department of Energy. The projects focus on scalability and usability, networked microgrids, and machine learning for a more resilient, flexible and secure power grid.

Researchers apply numerical simulations to understand more about a sturdy material and how its basic structure responds to and resists radiation. The outcomes could help guide development of the resilient materials of the future.

Researchers at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory are helping to lead transformation of the nation's century-old electric grid by developing new technologies to enhance its reliability and security.
