Using a large repository of blood samples from military personnel, PNNL and Uniformed Services University scientists have discovered a group of 13 proteins that could provide early detection of head and neck cancers.

Predictive models indicate cells regulate enzyme activity to maintain liquid center.

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory researchers used machine learning to explore the largest water clusters database, identifying—with the most accurate neural network—important information about this life-essential molecule.

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) researchers pioneer a new tool to represent cellular response to viral infection.

PNNL recognizes researchers during National Postdoc Appreciation Week.

The nation’s ability to test for COVID-19 has expanded, thanks to work at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, where scientists have established the performance of testing equipment to detect the virus.

PNNL cancer cell biologist Karin Rodland has been recognized by the international Human Proteome Organization.

Twelve researchers from PNNL presented at the 2020 Metabolomics Association of North America virtual conference in mid-September. Their presentations included a plenary talk, keynote talks, oral presentations, posters, and a lightning talk.

Text analysis software developed at PNNL helps the nation track global biothreats, such as COVID-19.

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) is part of a continuing National Science Foundation (NSF) team investigating the environmental impact of nanoparticles at the molecular level.

To study the impact of accelerated dryland expansion and degradation on global dryland gross primary production (GPP,) PNNL and Washington State University researchers assessed GPP data from 2000-2014 and the CMIP5 aridity index (AI).

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.

Biomedical scientist Brian Thrall co-edited the issue published in the journal NanoImpact. Three of the articles in the issue include multiple PNNL authors.

Researchers performed controlled laboratory experiments using river sediment to test organic matter thermodynamics as a mechanism of metabolic control in areas where groundwater and surface water mix.

Researchers performed a combined analysis of metabolic and gene co-expression networks to explore how the soil microbiome responds to changes in moisture and nutrient conditions.

By studying discrete functional components of the soil microbiome at high resolution, researchers obtained a more complete picture of soil diversity compared to analysis of the entire soil community.

Researchers trained deep neural networks to accurately predict microbial interactions captured by fluorescence microscopy.

As author of her first publication, PNNL bioinformaticist Isabelle O’Bryon developed the first forensic proteomics method to more quickly detect ricin, a toxin often crudely made in home laboratories that can kill in trace amounts.

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.

DOE researchers have developed an infrared nano-imager that may be used to visualize and fingerprint biological molecules in their native liquid environments.
