Cybersecurity is increasingly top-of-mind and in the news. Individuals worry about identify theft and the compromise of financial and medical records. And the federal government battles myriad threats aimed at our national security.

PNNL is the only DOE lab to offer a new, user-friendly commercialization option called exploratory licenses, which involve a two-page agreement and cost $1,000 to give companies six months to try out a technology before deciding whether or

Yingge Du, Kirsten Hofmockel and James Moran – have been selected to receive 2016 Early Career Research Program research grants by the Department of Energy Office of Science.

Rain triggers the release of a mist of particles from wet soils into the air, a finding with consequences for our planet’s climate and future.

PNNL research at the Marine Sciences Laboratory is featured in an American Chemical Society journal special issue on extracting uranium from seawater with an improved special adsorbent material.

Stripping inactive components from raw materials on a molecular scale improves hybrid battery performance.

A contract has been awarded to design and construct a 24,000-square-foot Collaboration Center, which will allow PNNL to host larger scientific meetings and increase collaboration among researchers and other scientific institutions.

An unexpected discovery has led to a zinc-manganese oxide rechargeable battery that's as inexpensive as conventional car batteries, but has a much higher energy density.

Steve Jobs said, "Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower." That is especially true in research and development. New technologies and creative solutions do not materialize overnight or on their own.

PNNL has licensed a tool that analyzes the combination of cyber and physical threats which can uncover vulnerabilities that may not be apparent by looking at them separately.

Scientists can now analyze and separate atoms and molecules according to their size and molecular structure with a clarity and precision well beyond conventional mass spectrometers, thanks to the new 21 Tesla Ultra-High-Resolution Mass Spectrometer.

Rising river waters deliver a feast of carbon to hungry microbes where water meets land, triggering increased activity and altering the flow of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.

PNNL researchers are designing synthetic polymers with the versatility of nature's original polymers, the ubiquitous proteins.

For the first time, researchers have been able to see what makes this titanium alloy so strong – and then make it stronger.

Discovery in action. These words describe what we do at PNNL. For more than 50 years, we have advanced the frontiers of science and engineering in the service of our nation and the the world.

Microbes in soil — organisms that exert enormous influence over our planet’s carbon cycle — may not be as adaptable to climate change as most scientists have presumed, according to a paper published in PLOS One.

PNNL takes pride in advancing scientific frontiers and developing solutions to vexing problems. In particular, we apply our technical expertise to address national needs in security, energy and the environment.

PNNL will help three small businesses reduce the cost of hydropower, cut building energy use, and make adhesives from plants through new projects announced today by DOE's Small Business Vouchers program.

A new composite material combines a metal-organic framework with an iron-rich molecule to selectively trap oxygen.

Clouds are notoriously hard to simulate in computer programs that model climate. A new study suggests why.
