A DNA editing tool adapted by Oak Ridge National Laboratory scientists makes engineering microbes for everything from bioenergy production to plastics recycling easier and faster.

A team of researchers from the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory has created a prototype system for detecting and geolocating damaged utility poles in the aftermath of natural di

Alice Perrin is passionate about scientific research, but also beans — as in legumes.

“Everyone should eat more beans,” she said. “They’ve got protein. They’ve got minerals. They’ve got fiber and carbohydrates. They’re incredibly healthy, and also, growing them restores nitrogen to the soil.”

A scientific instrument at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory could help create a noninvasive cancer treatment derived from a common tropical plant.

Pancratistatin is a chemical compound found in the spider lily, a native Hawaiian flower. Unlike traditional treatments, it kills cancer cells while keeping healthy cells intact.
