Two new publications provide emergency response agencies with critical insights into commercially available unmanned ground vehicles used for hazardous materials response.

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

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

PNNL's ASSORT model will help airports balance passenger screening and security risks with throughput. It also quantifies risks for different traveler types and optimizes checkpoint operations, improving efficiency while enhancing safety.

Over the next four years, PNNL and University of Arizona will develop open-source computational tools to better identify and characterize the viruses associated with the human microbiome.

A team from PNNL contributed several articles to the Domestic Preparedness Journal showcasing recent efforts to explore the emergency management and artificial intelligence research and development landscape.

A series of conference panels recently explored how new and evolving technologies can support emergency managers’ responsibilities.

Researchers developed a robust, cost-effective, and easy-to-use cap-based technique for spatial proteome mapping, addressing the lack of accessible proteomics technologies for studying tissue heterogeneity and microenvironments.

Solid phase manufacturing can create new custom metal alloys through an innovative process called solid phase alloying, researchers from PNNL report.

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.

A cross-institutional team of scientists developed PeakQC, a new software tool for automated quality control of mass spectrometry data.

At the 2024 Aviation Futures Workshop, researchers from PNNL joined other subject matter experts and representatives from the stakeholder community in reimagining the passenger experience.

Three PNNL researchers will receive five continuous years of funding for projects through highly competitive DOE Early Career Research Program awards.

Despite the widespread presence of RNA viruses in soils, little is known about the relative contributions and interactions of biological and environmental factors shaping the composition of soil RNA viral communities.

At the National Homeland Security Conference, researchers shared how partnerships and emerging technologies like artificial intelligence can play a key role in emergency management preparedness and response.

Ljiljana Paša-Tolić, a PNNL fellow, is the recipient of the 2024 International Mass Spectrometry Foundation’s Jochen Franzen Award. 

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.

At a one-day summit on PNNL’s Richland campus, scientists and engineers gather to hear from leaders and learn to lead others.
