Oak Ridge National Laboratory scientists identified a gene “hotspot” in the poplar tree that triggers dramatically increased root growth. The discovery supports development of better bioenergy crops and other plants that can thrive in difficult conditions while storing more carbon belowground.
Researchers at ORNL explored radium’s chemistry to advance cancer treatments using ionizing radiation.
A rare isotope in high demand for treating cancer is now more available to pharmaceutical companies developing and testing new drugs.
