Tuskan awarded Marcus Wallenberg Prize, forestryâs top honor
New computational framework speeds discovery of fungal metabolites, key to plant health and used in drug therapies and for other uses.
Corning uses neutron scattering to study the stability of different types of glass. Recently, researchers for the company have found that understanding the stability of the rings of atoms in glass materials can help predict the performance of glass products.
The 21st Symposium on Separation Science and Technology for Energy Applications, Oct. 23-26 at the Embassy Suites by Hilton West in Knoxville, attracted 109 researchers, including some from Austria and the Czech Republic. Besides attending many technical sessions, they had the opportunity to tour the Graphite Reactor, High Flux Isotope Reactor and both supercomputers at ORNL.
âThree-Dimensional Breast Cancer Spheroidsâ submitted by radiotherapeutics researcher Debjani Pal is stunning. Brilliant blue dots pop from an electric sphere threaded with bright colors: greens, aqua, hot pink and red.
How do you get water to float in midair? With a WAND2, of course. But itâs hardly magic. In fact, itâs a scientific device used by scientists to study matter.
Scientists at ORNL used their expertise in quantum biology, artificial intelligence and bioengineering to improve how CRISPR Cas9 genome editing tools work on organisms like microbes that can be modified to produce renewable fuels and chemicals.
Michael McGuireâs recognition as the 91°”Íű's top scientist headlined the annual awards. ORNL Director Stephen Streiffer also presented Directorâs Awards to two teams, for operational performance and continuous improvement, and to the nightâs science communicator awardee
Hilda Klasky, an R&D staff member in the Scalable Biomedical Modeling group at ORNL, has been selected as a senior member of the Association of Computing Machinery, or ACM.
Raina Setzer knows the work she does matters. Thatâs because sheâs already seen it from the other side. Setzer, a radiochemical processing technician in 91°”Íűâs Isotope Processing and Manufacturing Division, joined the lab in June 2023.
In response to a renewed international interest in molten salt reactors, researchers from the Department of Energyâs 91°”Íű have developed a novel technique to visualize molten salt intrusion in graphite.
