Researchers from PNNL have helped colleagues at OHSU identify lipid molecules required for Zika infection in human cells. The specific lipids involved could also be a clue to why the virus primarily infects brain tissue.
PNNL atomic-scale research shows how certain metal oxide catalysts behave during alkanol dehydration, an important class of oxygen-removal reactions for biomass conversion.
Researchers from 25 institutions around the country, including PNNL, are working to find out how exercise changes the molecular makeup of our cells to generate health benefits.
PNNL’s Karthikeyan Ramasamy was elected to a three-year term as a director in the American Institute of Chemical Engineers’ Fuels and Petrochemicals Division.
Jonathan Male originally joined PNNL in 2006 as a scientist focused on catalysis. After more than seven years leading DOE’s Bioenergy Technologies Office, he's back at PNNL as a chief scientist in the Energy Processes & Materials Division.
To help spur economic development and assist in the battle against COVID-19, PNNL is making available its entire portfolio of patented technologies on a research trial basis—at no cost—through the end of 2020.
After 50 years in science and on the eve of retirement, Laboratory Fellow Karin Rodland, a cancer cell biologist at PNNL, is working on experiments she has dreamed about for decades.
Accurate identification of metabolites, and other small chemicals, in biological and environmental samples has historically fallen short when using traditional methods.
A new study using proteogenomics to compare cancerous tissue with normal fallopian tube samples advances insights about the molecular machinery that underlies ovarian cancer.
The PNNL team that made history, working with industrial partner LanzaTech, by creating the first jet fuel from industrial waste gas will receive a 2020 IRI Achievement Award for its breakthrough.
PNNL and the U.S. Forest Service used a combination of data, models, analytical techniques and software to evaluate forest restoration impacts on the environment, while also assessing the economics of resulting biomass.
A chemical engineer by day at PNNL, Dan Howe is an ardent home brewer by night. The connection resulted in production of biocrude oil from brewery waste.
A new study focusing on the proteins involved in endometrial cancer, commonly known as uterine cancer, offers insights about which patients will need aggressive treatment and which won’t.
PNNL’s Corinne Drennan has been selected to serve a term on the Washington Department of Ecology’s advisory board for the new Recycling Development Center.
Retired PNNL scientist Doug Elliott has received the 2019 Don Klass Award for Excellence in Thermochemical Conversion Science from the Gas Technology Institute.
