The Department of Energy’s Office of Isotope R&D and Production, within the Office of Science, today announced a major, multi-laboratory breakthrough in domestic stable isotope enrichment and production capabilities. Through a collaborative effort between Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, the U.S. has developed pioneering technologies to produce ultra-enriched silane and germane that are extremely depleted in noise-inducing contaminant isotopes.
The Department of Energy’s Center for Bioenergy Innovation at Oak Ridge National Laboratory has named Adam Guss, John Lovell and Dan Olson as team leads for its Rapid Genetics, Poplar and Consolidated Bioprocessing research teams. The three scientists will help guide research spanning genetic engineering, poplar feedstocks and microbial bioprocessing to support CBI’s biotechnology mission.
Caleigh Samuels of ORNL has received the 2026 Elda E. Anderson Award from the Health Physics Society for her research excellence and contributions to radiation protection. She leads radiation dosimetry efforts at ORNL's Center for Radiation Protection Knowledge and supports national and international radiation safety initiatives.
ORNL uses advanced modeling, simulation and high-performance computing to help utilities, reactor developers and regulators evaluate reactor performance, safety and licensing before construction begins. These capabilities support power uprates for today's nuclear fleet and help advance next-generation reactor designs toward deployment.
ORNL signed a memorandum of understanding with Chattanooga entrepreneur center The Company Lab designed to facilitate the deployment of ORNL technology and strengthen the region's growing deep-tech ecosystem.
Six entrepreneurs have been selected for the next cohort of Innovation Crossroads, a Department of Energy Lab-Embedded Entrepreneurship Program node based at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The program provides energy-related startup founders from across the nation with access to ORNL’s researchers, facilities and technical expertise, as well as connect them with experts, mentors and networks to accelerate their efforts to take their promising ideas to the marketplace.
DOE's Office of Science’s Isotope R&D and Production program has re-established and revolutionized its domestic stable isotope enrichment capabilities. Led by pioneering advancements at ORNL, this expansion stabilizes the national isotope market, reducing decades of reliance on foreign suppliers for critical medical, national security and industrial technologies.
Ahmed Arabi Hassen of ORNL has been named a Fellow of the American Society for Nondestructive Testing, recognizing his leadership and contributions to nondestructive evaluation and composite manufacturing. His work has advanced innovative manufacturing technologies while helping accelerate the adoption of advanced materials across industry.
Addison Malone, a recent graduate of the Christian Academy of Knoxville's homestudy program, has been named the 2026 UT-Battelle Scholarship recipient. She will attend the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, this fall to study chemistry, building on her STEM achievements and ORNL internship experience with plans to pursue a career in nuclear forensics.
ORNL has deployed Pathfinder, a new 20-qubit IQM Radiance quantum computer, to advance research that combines quantum computing with high-performance computing. The system will help researchers develop open, hardware-agnostic quantum-HPC software and explore applications in materials science, chemistry, and artificial intelligence.
