Hide and seek: Understanding how COVID-19 evades detection in a human cell

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

Scientists using the Advanced Photon Source have discovered new insights into the ways the SARS-CoV-2 virus camouflages itself inside the human body.

Flexing our research muscle: Scientists use APS to better understand muscle form, function

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

Powerful APS X-rays are used to uncover the structure and behavior of proteins controlling tarantula muscles. These insights may help scientists better understand our own muscles.

The high-tech evolution of scientific computing: A slight return

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

To leverage emerging computing capabilities and prepare for future exascale systems, the Argonne Leadership Computing Facility, a DOE Office of Science User Facility, is expanding its scope beyond traditional simulation-based research to include data science and machine learning approaches.

Preparing for science in the exascale era

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

As the future home to the Aurora exascale system, Argonne National Laboratory has been ramping up efforts to ready the supercomputer and its future users for science in the exascale era.

Creating the software that will unlock the power of exascale

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

Researchers nationwide are building the software and applications that will run on some the world's fastest supercomputers. Among them are members of DOE's Exascale Computing Project who recently published a paper highlighting their progress so far.

Virtual Argonne training program prepares researchers for extreme-scale computing

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

The annual Argonne Training Program on Extreme-Scale Computing went virtual this year, providing two weeks of instruction to ready attendees for science in the exascale era.

Argonne develops unprecedented long-term wildfire prediction model

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

Wildfire indices and high-resolution climate models combine to produce a detailed historical analysis of wildfire events across the US and suggest the potential for more severe and frequent fires in the latter half of the century.

Could Argonne's mini nuclear reactor solve the e-truck recharging dilemma?

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

Electric semitrucks could revolutionize the transportation industry. But not until a convenient source of electricity is found. Could mini nuclear reactors at rest stops solve this problem?

New material senses neurotransmitters in the brain

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

Scientists have developed a new material that can sense glutamate in the brain, and may lead to new tools to combat neurological disorders.

Dept. of Energy takes next step in Versatile Test Reactor program

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

The U.S. Department of Energy has approved the next stage of the Versatile Test Reactor project, bringing a new advanced nuclear reactor design closer to reality.
