PNNL scientists have created a tool called WatchOwl to collect more than 4 million tweets per day related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The tool analyzes tweets related to interventions like social distancing and movement restrictions.
A cadre of physical scientists, engineers and computing experts at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is poised to participate in the launch of three new DOE Office of Science-sponsored quantum information science research centers.
Contributions from researchers across Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) were recently recognized in the preliminary findings of a Secretary of Energy Advisory Board (SEAB) report.
A 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan that knocked out a nuclear power plant helped inspire PNNL computational scientists looking for clues of future nuclear reactor mishaps by tracking radioactive iodine.
A new PNNL report says the western U.S. power system can handle large-scale vehicle electrification up to 24 million vehicles through 2028, but more than that and cities could start feeling the squeeze.
A multi-institution research team found how the protein environment surrounding some enzymes can alter the direction of a cellular reaction, as well as its rate—up to six orders of magnitude—in a phenomenon referred to as catalytic bias.
Six months into a pandemic that has claimed more than 570,000 lives worldwide, scores of PNNL scientists are engaged in dozens of projects in the fight against COVID-19.
PNNL data scientists Maria Glenski and Svitlana Volkova have contributed a chapter to a book titled Disinformation, Misinformation, and Fake News in Social Media: Emerging Research Challenges and Opportunities.
PNNL is managing the Data Archive and Portal, which provides the wind research community with secure, timely, easy, and open access to all data brought in from research under DOE’s Atmosphere to Electrons program.
Two PNNL team members, Courtney Corley, a data scientist, and Kyle Bingman, an advisor on assured artificial intelligence (AI), were featured on a recent episode of the U.S. Department of Energy Direct Currents podcast.
Ten staff members from PNNL were invited to attend and lead the various breakout sessions at the Department of Energy Office of Science 5G Enabled Energy Innovation Workshop (5GEEIW), which was held in early March.
Two PNNL researchers are helping define the future of transparency and accountability for public and private use of autonomous and intelligent systems.
