X-ray Measurements Reveal an Unexpected Role for Copper in Photocatalysts
Department of Energy, Office of Science

Copper is a promising catalyst for converting carbon dioxide into reduced species, a step in converting carbon dioxide into fuels. Although often initiated by electrical energy, this reaction can also be achieved using solar energy. In this work, scientists used X-rays to investigate how copper catalysts change when operating only with light and no applied electricity. The work found that the copper plays an unexpected role, producing an oxidized, not reduced, species.

On Time, Under Budget: INL Projects Demonstrate Ability to Deliver on Big Nuclear Jobs
Idaho National Laboratory (INL)

Since its days as the National Reactor Testing Station, Idaho National Laboratory (INL) has focused on proving that what people think can’t be done is in fact possible. In the past decade, the lab has repeatedly demonstrated to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the nuclear industry that it can complete large, complicated nuclear projects on time and under budget.

UW-led Research Links Wildfire Smoke Exposure with Increased Dementia Risk
University of Washington

New research led by the University of Washington found that wildfire smoke is especially hazardous to people's memory health. An analysis of the health care records of 1.2 million Southern California residents found that higher long-term smoke exposure was associated with a significant increase in the odds that a person would be diagnosed with dementia.

Crayfish Map Gives Conservation a Helping Claw
College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign

A new mapping project led by the West University of Timișoara, Romania and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign puts 427 crayfish taxa and over 100,000 observation records on the first searchable global atlas: World of Crayfish. The map will help protect vulnerable crayfish species and manage invasive ones worldwide.
