Robert Hettich: Decoding biological complexity with next-gen mass spectrometry
In a major milestone for cancer research, the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory helped reduce the time between cancer diagnosis and pathology report processing from 22 months to just 14 months, utilizing advanced artificial
ORNL staff and its managing contractor, UT-Battelle, donated $1,104,866 in the 2024 ORNL Gives campaign, an annual employee-led effort to address needs throughout East Tennessee.
Massimiliano (Max) Lupo Pasini, an R&D data scientist from ORNL, was awarded the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center’s High Performance Computing Achievement Award for High Impact Scientific Achievement for his work in “Groundbreaking contributions to scientific machine learning, particularly through the development of HydraGNN.”
A team of scientists led by a professor from Duke University discovered a way to help make batteries safer, charge faster and last longer. They relied on neutrons at ORNL to understand at the atomic scale how lithium moves in lithium phosphorus sulfur chloride, a promising new type of solid-state battery material known as a superionic compound.
By editing the polymers of discarded plastics, ORNL chemists have found a way to generate new macromolecules with more valuable properties than those of the starting material.
Melissa Cregger of the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory has received the Presidential Early Career Award for Science and Engineers, or PECASE, the highest honor bestowed by the U.S. government on outstanding early-career scientists and engineers.
Two ORNL-led computing teams and a grid security team were recognized with Department of Energy Secretary’s Honor Awards, presented by Secretary Jennifer Granholm on January 8, 2025, at the DOE Forrestal building.
Two scientists and an Innovation Crossroads alumna affiliated with ORNL were recognized by DOE’s Advanced Materials and Manufacturing Technologies Office last month for their contributions in manufacturing innovation for the nation’s energy sector.
Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have developed a new automated testing capability for semiconductor devices, which is newly available to researchers and industry partners in the Grid Research Integration and Deployment Center.
AI is transforming fields like healthcare, research, and climate science, offering exciting breakthroughs but also posing risks if misused. Oak Ridge National Laboratory is using AI to expand knowledge while working on making it more secure, trustworthy, and energy-efficient.
