To untangle the complexities of the carbon cycle, Trent Northen, Interim Division Director of Environmental Genomics & Systems Biology, is using the biocrust system to examine the specific metabolites in soil and how microbes target these compounds.
JBEI’s Sarah Richardson Honored for Contribution to East Bay Schools
Sarah Richardson is among those who received a “Business Person of the Year” award from the Eden Area Regional Occupation Program. She was honored for work with students in the program’s biotechnology classes and commitment to increasing the awareness of STEM fields among underrepresented students.
New Catalysts Can be Fine Tuned; Could Replace Precious Metals
Scientists at MIT and Berkeley Lab have developed a new type of catalyst that can be tuned to promote desired chemical reactions, potentially enabling the replacement of expensive and rare metals in fuel cells. Carbon is used as the primary material for electrodes in batteries and fuel cells, and the new catalyst is carbon-based, containing … Read more »
Seven Years of Biofuels Research: History of DOE’s BRCs
JBEI’s Blake Simmons and Kristy Nordahl helped co-author a report on the first seven years of research at the DOE’s three Bioenergy Research Centers (BRCs).
Time-Lapse Analysis Offers New Look at How Cells Repair DNA Damage
Time-lapse imaging can make complicated processes easier to grasp—think of a stitched-together sequence of photos that chronicles the construction of a building. A group of scientists, led by Sylvain Costes of the Biological Systems & Engineering Division, are using a similar approach to study how cells repair DNA damage.
