## First-of-its-kind integrated dataset enables genes-to-ecosystems research

April 8, 2024

A first-ever dataset bridging molecular information about the poplar tree microbiome to ecosystem-level processes has been released by a team of DOE scientists led by ORNL. The project aims to inform research regarding how natural systems function, their vulnerability to a changing climate and ultimately how plants might be engineered for better performance as sources of bioenergy and natural carbon storage.

## Alyssa Carrell: Exploring the microscopic world for maximum impact 

March 27, 2024

Alyssa Carrell started her science career studying the tallest inhabitants in the forest, but today is focused on some of its smallest — the microbial organisms that play an outsized role in plant health. 

## Sustainable biomass production capacity could triple US bioeconomy, report finds

March 15, 2024

The United States could triple its current bioeconomy by producing more than 1 billion tons per year of plant-based biomass for renewable fuels, while meeting projected demands for food, feed, fiber, conventional forest products and exports, according to the DOE’s latest Billion-Ton Report led by ORNL.

## Fungal ‘bouncers’ patrol plant-microbe relationship

January 17, 2024

New computational framework speeds discovery of fungal metabolites, key to plant health and used in drug therapies and for other uses.  

## New report outlines opportunities to remove CO2 at the gigaton scale

December 11, 2023

Scientists from more than a dozen institutions have completed a first-of-its-kind high-resolution assessment of carbon dioxide removal potential in the United States, charting a path to achieve a net-zero greenhouse gas economy by 2050. 

## Four scientists receive Battelle Distinguished Inventor recognition

Four scientists affiliated with ORNL were named Battelle Distinguished Inventors during the lab’s annual Innovation Awards on Dec. 1 in recognition of being granted 14 or more United States patents.

## ORNL scientists contribute Earth system expertise to Fifth National Climate Assessment 

November 17, 2023

Scientists at ORNL used their knowledge of complex ecosystem processes, energy systems, human dynamics, computational science and Earth-scale modeling to inform the nation’s latest National Climate Assessment, which draws attention to vulnerabilities and resilience opportunities in every region of the country.

## Scientists use quantum biology, AI to sharpen genome editing tool

November 7, 2023

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.

## At the root of bulked-up plants 

October 26, 2023

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.

## ORNL projects receive $8M from DOE Technology Commercialization Fund in FY23

October 26, 2023

In fiscal year 2023 — Oct. 1–Sept. 30, 2023 — Oak Ridge National Laboratory was awarded more than $8 million in technology maturation funding through the Department of Energy’s Technology Commercialization Fund, or TCF.
