A trio of Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) researchers have each received a 2021 Early Career Research Program award from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) in the highly competitive program. Awards to DOE-based researchers total $500,000 per year for five years for salary and research expenses.
PNNL recipients are Marcel D. Baer, senior research scientist, and Nathan R. Tallent, computer scientist, both in the Physical and Computational Sciences Directorate; and Ben Loer, physicist in the National Security Directorate.
by Casey Knopik (Pacific Northwest National Laboratory) New facility will foster research collaborations to accelerate scientific discovery and technological innovation A new research facility on the Richland campus of Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) is set to open fall 2021. The Energy Sciences Center (ESC) will feature many of PNNL’s strengths in chemistry, materials sciences, and computing in one building.
“The ESC will accelerate innovation in energy research using chemistry, materials science, and quantum information sciences supporting the nation’s climate and clean energy research agenda,” said Lou Terminello, associate laboratory director of the Physical and Computational Sciences Directorate. “This will be one of the most advanced facilities in the world designed for this type of research and will be a tremendous asset for the nation. The research that it will enable is going to play an important part in decarbonizing the energy system.”
