The popular approach of organizing soil bacteria into fast- or slow-growing groups is problematic because most bacteria grow at comparable rates in soil.
PNNL chemist Christopher Anderton recently named president-elect of the Imaging Mass Spectrometry Society (IMSS). In this new position, he will help lead the merge of IMSS with a European-based society, currently underway.
Variations in burn severity are a key control on the chemical constituents of dissolved organic matter delivered to streams within a single burn perimeter.
Department of Energy, Office of Science Director Asmeret Asefaw Berhe visited PNNL to learn about the Lab’s drive to conduct discovery science, commitment to science for an equitable future, and development of a diversified STEM workforce.
A multi-omics analysis provides the framework for gaining insights into the structure and function of microbial communities across multiple habitats on a planetary scale
A rich and largely untapped reservoir of lipids in soil environments was used to examine microorganisms’ physiological responses to drying-rewetting cycles.
Data-driven autonomous technology to rapidly design and deliver antiviral interventions targeting SARS-CoV-2 to reduce drug discovery timeline and advance bio preparedness capabilities.
A team from the Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory published research, demonstrating that the soil microbes were directly involved in the stabilization of soil organic carbon and mineral weathering.
Microbes that were previously frozen in soils are becoming more active. This study demonstrates the diverse RNA viral communities found in thawed permafrost.
New research findings published in Science Advances (November 2022), help explain the progression of Alzheimer-related dementia in each patient. The findings outline a biological classification system that predicts disease severity.
