What are Biosecurity Sequence Reference Databases?
Biosecurity sequence reference databases are essential and contain all published nucleic acid or protein sequences, whether or not they are potentially harmful.
What are the Components of an Effective Biosecurity Customer Screening Protocol?
Customer screening, flagging, and follow-up play essential roles in establishing the legitimacy of customers ordering synthetic dsDNA sequences. It’s not enough to merely flag a potential bad actor.
Promise vs. Reality – Will Healthcare Delivery Evolve?
Thanks to COVID-19, these are heady days for telemedicine, where the future again looks bright and change is on the horizon. But will that last?
Helping Libraries and Museums Operate Safely in the COVID-19 World
As libraries and museums around the country begin to reopen to the public, the need for safe handling of core library, archival and museum materials is increasingly urgent.
5 Things to Know About PFAS and Human Health
Because of the pervasive use and persistent nature of PFAS, there is widespread human exposure. Battelle dives into this topic in our white paper.
Why are Control Lists an Essential Part of an Effective Biosecurity Screening Program?
Biosecurity control lists name organisms that have the potential to pose a severe threat to public, animal, or plant health. Up-to-date control lists are essential to an effective screening program.

Students at Sisters High School Take Science into the Stratosphere
Students at Sisters High School in Oregon, are taking learning to new heights through an innovative STEM program in stratospheric ballooning with help from Battelle.
What Does COVID-19 Mean for Biosecurity Screening Protocols?
It’s an unsettling fact that the list of harmful pathogens (e.g. viruses and toxins) is not finite. This is clear because naturally occurring pathogens appear in our lives on a regular basis.
How are DNA Biosecurity Screening Guidances Used?
DNA biosecurity screening guidances provide a framework for voluntary screening programs.
Why Do Some Organizations Screen DNA Voluntarily?
Certain stakeholders in the biotechnology community screen DNA sequences voluntarily because they want to ensure that the technology is used responsibly.
What is Biosecurity?
The same technology that can bring great benefit to society can also bring great harm. How can we protect ourselves without hampering the work we’d like to promote?

The 2019 COSI Science Festival was a great event and one in which Battelle was proud to participate. We’re going virtual with this year’s event.
Restoring the Sense of Touch in Those with Spinal Cord Injury
Helping a person regain movement in a paralyzed limb is a momentous achievement. But movement isn’t enough. Sense of touch is also important.
Battelle Committed to Environmental Action on Earth Day
Battelle is joining the call for greater global ambition to tackle environmental challenges. We believe it can be done by pushing science forward.
Keeping the Human Connection in Drug Delivery Device Development
Drug delivery devices have changed a lot over the years. And sometimes, the features intended to help patients end up causing confusion instead.
Using Electromyography to More Accurately Assess Stroke Injuries
After a stroke, it’s hard for physicians to know exactly what’s going on inside a patient. Battelle hopes to change that with our EMG system.
What's in a Name? How About a Dash of Science Mixed with a Pinch of Creativity
When NASA announced a contest to name its new Mars rover, Battelle was over the moon. STEM education serves as the foundation of our business.
Modeling the Movement of PFAS Plumes in Groundwater
PFAS are notoriously hard to monitor. Our PFAS Predict™ technology is a new tool to track and predict the movement of PFAS in groundwater.
