PNNL researchers have found yet another way to turn trash into treasure: using algal biochar, a waste production from hydrothermal liquefaction, as a supplementary material for cement.

Researchers are uncovering the secrets of a fast-acting molecular messaging network that helps determine how the genetic code plays out.

Understanding molecular modifications of proteins in the red yeast could help scientists re-engineer the organism’s phenotype.

Alex Beliaev, a biologist at PNNL, was named a Society for Industrial Microbiology and Biotechnology fellow.

PNNL researchers received an award from the Materials, Metals & Materials Society (TMS) for a publication on friction riveting.

PNNL is hosting a scientific conference focused directly on understanding and predicting the collection of an organism’s traits.

Circadian rhythms of blue-green microbes offer new window into predictive phenomics—how to predict and control the traits of an organism.

Researchers at PNNL are pursuing new approaches to understand, predict and control the phenome—the collection of biological traits within an organism shaped by its genes and interactions with the environment.

Armed with some of the world’s most advanced instrumentation, researchers at PNNL are working to analyze huge amounts of data and uncover hidden biological connections.
