PNNL has created and licensed a system that sniffs out trace levels of fentanyl, other drugs and explosives through the air.

Scientists are developing ways to detect previously unseen forms of fentanyl as well as other synthetic opioids known as nitazenes.

Scientists plumbed the depths of nearly 3,000 soil samples from around the globe to compile the heftiest atlas of soil viruses ever created.

Scientists have developed a way to detect tiny amounts of hard-to-detect explosives more than eight feet away.

As launch time draws near, PNNL scientists are eager to explore how plants might grow in space, where the effect of gravity is substantially weaker.

New research sheds light on the biomolecular dangers of night shift work.

Vigorous exercise burns fat more in males than in females, but the benefits of exercise are broad for both sexes.

Scientists have learned more about how to protect the insulin-producing cells that die in patients with Type 1 diabetes.

PNNL researchers helped identify a fragment from the SARS-CoV-2 virus that spurs severe illness.

Scientists have learned more about how drug resistance develops in patients with acute myeloid leukemia and how the process might be slowed.

Post-consumer recycled aluminum to be transformed into high strength building materials and consumer goods with patented ShAPE™ manufacturing process.

A newly developed, highly conductive copper wire could find applications in the electric grid, as well as in homes and businesses. The finding defies what's been thought about how metals conduct electricity.

Less pollution and the odd shapes of snow grains as they pack together should help cut the decline of snowpack later this century.

In a new paper, researchers point to three major efforts where the biggest climate mitigation gains stand to be realized: ramping up carbon dioxide removal, reigning in non-carbon dioxide emissions and halting deforestation.

Rechargeable battery performance could be improved by a new understanding of how batteries work at the molecular level. Researchers at PNNL upend what's known about how rechargeable batteries function.

Scientists have opened a new view into the workings of the central nervous system, finding a diverse set of important molecules.

Scientists have taken an important step forward in predicting who will develop Type 1 diabetes months before symptoms appear.

The PNNL-patented ShAPE™ manufacturing process produces high-strength aluminum vehicle parts that lower costs and are more environmentally friendly.

A detailed snapshot of proteins by PNNL scientists marks a big step toward a diagnostic blood test for a deadly form of liver disease.

The Washington State Academy of Sciences added six people from PNNL to its 2022 class of inductees.
