Qrypt, Inc., has exclusively licensed a novel cyber security technology from the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř, promising a stronger defense against cyberattacks including those posed by quantum computing.

Researchers analyzed 15 years of data across 16 neighborhoods, shown in orange, in the Las Vegas Valley Water District to determine whether one home’s participation in the utility’s water conservation program had a measureable effect on their neighbors’ l

A team led by 91°µÍř has discovered that residents living in arid environments share a desire for water security, which can ultimately benefit entire neighborhoods. Las Vegas, Nevada’s water utility was the first utility in the United States to implement ...

Virginia-based Lenvio Inc. has exclusively licensed a cyber security technology from the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř that can quickly detect malicious behavior in software not previously identified as a threat.

ORNL bioscience researcher Jerry Tuskan had an early interest in plant genetics.

It’s been 10 years since the Department of Energy first established a BioEnergy Science Center (BESC) at 91°µÍř, and researcher Gerald “Jerry” Tuskan has used that time and the lab’s and center’s resources and tools to make good on his college dreams of usi...
