Chicago State University to serve as ‘scientific supersite’ to study climate change impact

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

Argonne and Chicago State University deployed instruments at the Chicago State University Campus to measure Chicago’s changing climate. These sensors are among the first for the Argonne-led Urban Integrated Field Laboratory called Community Research on Climate and Urban Science (CROCUS).

Scientists use ORNL’s Summit supercomputer to learn how cicada wings kill bacteria

DOE/Oak Ridge National Laboratory

Over the past decade, teams of engineers, chemists and biologists have analyzed the physical and chemical properties of cicada wings, hoping to unlock the secret of their ability to kill microbes on contact. If this function of nature can be replicated by science, it may lead to products with inherently antibacterial surfaces that are more effective than current chemical treatments.
