JPEO-CBRND Successfully Fulfills First Year of Annual Procurement Requirement for BioThrax® (Anthrax Vaccine Adsorbed)
Frederick, MD – On July 24, 2024, the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) fulfilled the final fiscal year (FY) 2024 delivery of 626,870 doses of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved BioThrax® (Anthrax Vaccine Adsorbed), a pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for anthrax disease. This marks the completion of the first annual delivery – part of a larger…
An Electric Grid That Thinks Ahead
When we flip the light switch in our homes, we have come to expect instant access to electricity. Behind the scenes, that reliability depends on utility operators who have developed control systems and fail-safes to keep the power flowing. But times are changing rapidly, and utility operators face an evolving electrical grid that has become…
New Lithium-Ion Battery Recycling Method Is Earth-Friendly and More Economical
Lithium-ion batteries are everywhere, in cell phones, computers, electric vehicles, and even toys, to name only a few places. They have become an integral part of our everyday lives. Lithium, the element that makes these batteries possible, is considered a critical material by the U. S. Department of Energy because it is essential in many…
Sandia Researcher Recognized for Electrification Work With Tribal Communities
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Sandia National Laboratories senior scientist Stan Atcitty has been honored with the A.P. Seethapathy Rural Electrification Excellence Award by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) for his leadership and innovation in the rural electrification of U.S. tribal nations. The IEEE, one of the world’s largest technical professional organizations, established the…
Revealing the Mysteries Within Microbial Genomes
A new technique developed at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) will make it much easier for researchers to discover the traits or activities encoded by genes of unknown function in microbes, a key step toward understanding the roles and impact of individual species. The approach, called barcoded overexpression bacterial shotgun library sequencing, or Boba-seq,…
