PNNL is central to the Genesis Mission, leading and participating in projects central to the nation’s security and international competitiveness.

The Scientific Discovery through Advanced Computing institute will focus on making scientific machine learning accessible to domain scientists.

The Genesis Mission will mobilize the Department of Energy’s 17 National Laboratories, industry, and academia to build an integrated discovery platform.

PNNL brings its expertise to the space domain by joining an organization that facilitates collaboration across the global space industry.

This achievement earned DIMPLES a Best Paper award at the ACM International Conference on Supercomputing 2025.

As Laboratory Director Steve Ashby pens his last monthly column, he highlights PNNL’s accomplishments with pride and gratitude.

Micron and PNNL co-design the Crete computer system, delivering a new memory architecture for data-intensive scientific computing and AI applications.

Seaweed could be a new source of critical minerals for electronics, vehicles, and buildings.

Through an unprecedented collaboration with Idaho, Savannah River, and Argonne national laboratories, the Athena Project has built a network of nearly 150 scientists.

Researchers have begun a series of experiments that could bring about more energy for grid, thanks to a special delivery of 11 "high burnup" rods.

Researchers have developed the first coastal transport model for microplastics to understand how particles move in waterways and coastal currents.

Scientists have tapped AI and powerful computing to speed up how quickly officials are able to learn important details about nuclear events.

This research helps predict how coastal forests will respond to future sea level changes which is crucial for protecting these ecosystems.

The Coastal Observations, Mechanisms, and Predictions Across Systems and Scales: Field, Measurements, and Experiments project established a network of observational field sites across Chesapeake Bay and western Lake Erie.

Due to their inherent variability and complexity over space and time, scientists are challenged to understand the complex interactions among soil, vegetation, and water along coastal terrestrial-aquatic interfaces.

This study characterized above- and below-ground properties to explore the spatial heterogeneity of the terrestrial aquatic interface ecosystem within the Chesapeake Bay area and evaluate the major drivers of soil respiration.

Patricia Paviet has led 100+ international webinars, building a vital global resource for next-generation nuclear energy education and collaboration.

Researchers have created an algorithm that slashes the calculations necessary to prepare and customize data for quantum computing.

For PNNL’s Jonathan Evarts, Hope Lackey, and Erik Reinhart, this partnership with WSU opened doors and provided opportunities for their scientific careers to flourish.

By combining computational modeling with experimental research, scientists identified a promising composition that reduces the need for a critical material in an alloy that can withstand extreme environments.
